Wayne was born May 9, 1941, in El Paso, Texas. His life was marked by an unwavering faith in Jesus Christ and a deep love for God’s Word. He spent many years serving in church ministry, teaching the Bible and leading countless souls to Christ. For the past 25 years, he faithfully served the Eagle Mountain Church of Christ. Wayne especially loved studying and teaching the books of Job and Revelation, and he had a gift for helping others discover the richness and truth of Scripture.

Wayne was also a dedicated servant to his community. He served with the North Richland Hills Police Department, first as a police officer and later as a criminal investigations detective. He continued his service to Tarrant County as a Grand Jury Bailiff for the Tarrant County Criminal Courts, a position he held until his retirement in August 2025.

Wayne loved staying active and was an avid runner, continuing to run well into his eighties. He also enjoyed watching college softball and spending time with his family.

Above all, Wayne was a faithful servant of Christ, a devoted husband, a loving father, and a cherished grandfather and great-grandfather. His life was a testimony to his faith, and his influence will continue through the many lives he touched.

He fought the good fight, he finished the race, he kept the faith. Now, his faith has become sight. Well done, good and faithful servant.

Wayne is survived by his beloved wife of nearly 40 years, Carolyn Daniell; his five children, Perry Daniell and wife, Melody, Cari Barker and husband, Mike, Cami Cho-Mulkey and husband, Allen, Candi Chapman and husband, Steve, and Tracy Messing and husband, Shane; a host of grandchildren and great-grandchildren who will carry his memory and legacy in their hearts; his brother, Preston Daniell and wife, Catherine and twin sister, Betty Jane Moyeros.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Pete and Ila Daniell and sister, Peggy Tedford.
