John Wayne Stewart, 80, passed away November 11, 2020, at his home in Brunswick, Georgia. Wayne was born February 10, 1940, in Florida to John O. and Ruth Aycock Stewart.
Wayne could accomplish anything he set his mind to. He graduated from Glynn Academy in 1958. He served in the National Guard, worked for Brunswick Pulp and Paper and Georgia Pacific. He owned WYNR and WGIG radio stations from which he broadcasted for many years and was the voice of the WYNR morning show.
