Wayne Eitzen was born in Wichita Falls, Texas, on December 7, 1936, to Ted (Theodore) and Thelma (Slover) Eitzen. He had one brother brother, Lloyd. He was preceded in death by his parents, his brother, and sister-in-law, Wanda. Wayne passed from this life at 9:54 p.m. January 27, 2021, in Huntsville Hospital, Huntsville, Alabama. He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Delores (Bush) Eitzen, and three children, Mark Eitzen of Dallas, Texas, Michelle Houtchens of Florida, and Maria Cowden of Huntsville, Alabama, and by 10 grandchildren, five nephews, and two nieces. After marrying and having three children in Oklahoma, Wayne and Delores lived most of their years together in the Bentonville and Bella Vista, Arkansas, area. They were long-time members of the Bella Vista church of Christ, and Wayne was active as a song leader and Sunday school teacher. He enjoyed golfing, hunting, and fishing. There will not be a public memorial service, but some family will meet privately to remember Wayne.
