•WAYNE SMALLEY<br />

Wayne H. Smalley <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>Perrysburg</strong>, 95, died February<br />

27, <strong>2013</strong>, at Hospice <strong>of</strong><br />

Northwest Ohio. He was<br />

born on October 1, 1917, to<br />

Lynn David Smalley and<br />

Rubie Smalley in Concord,<br />

Michigan. He attended <strong>the</strong><br />

local school, was a Boy<br />

Scout and earned spending<br />

money as a newspaper carrier.<br />

He enjoyed sports,<br />

pitching for <strong>the</strong> Concord<br />

High School baseball team<br />

and quarterbacking <strong>the</strong> football<br />

team.<br />

In June <strong>of</strong> 1941, Mr.<br />

Smalley was drafted into <strong>the</strong><br />

Army. Upon completion <strong>of</strong><br />

basic training, he attended<br />

Officer Candidate School at<br />

Fort Benning, Georgia.<br />

Then, during a short leave,<br />

he and Irene Snow were<br />

married. They had about<br />

three months toge<strong>the</strong>r in<br />

Oregon before he received<br />

orders for overseas duty. He<br />

served in North Africa and<br />

Italy, receiving shrapnel<br />

wounds that removed him<br />

from <strong>the</strong> fighting. He earned<br />

<strong>the</strong> Purple Heart and was<br />

honorably discharged in<br />

1946 with <strong>the</strong> rank <strong>of</strong> Captain.<br />

Back home in Concord,<br />

he joined his fa<strong>the</strong>r in <strong>the</strong><br />

Landon & Smalley Chevrolet<br />

dealership and Standard<br />

Oil gas station for a few<br />

years. He eventually went to<br />

work for Michigan Wholesalers,<br />

Inc., a wholesale<br />

building supply firm in<br />

Jackson. In 1957, he accepted<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir <strong>of</strong>fer <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

manager’s position for <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

Toledo <strong>of</strong>fice. While looking<br />

for a place to move his<br />

family, he “discovered” <strong>Perrysburg</strong>,<br />

<strong>the</strong>n a town <strong>of</strong><br />

about 4,500 people. When<br />

Michigan Wholesalers decided<br />

to downsize some<br />

years later, he went to work<br />

for Maumee Valley Supply,<br />

serving many customers he<br />

already knew, until his retirement<br />

in 1980.<br />

Retirement provided<br />

time for travel, which he always<br />

enjoyed. In addition to<br />

winters in Florida, Mr. and<br />

Mrs. Smalley traveled<br />

throughout <strong>the</strong> country to attend<br />

bi-annual Army reunions<br />

and went on several<br />

cruises. His most meaningful<br />

trip occurred after he<br />

reached his 90’s. It was his<br />

participation in an Honor<br />

Flight, taking veterans from<br />

Toledo to <strong>the</strong> Washington,<br />

D.C. World War II Memorial<br />

to honor <strong>the</strong>ir service. In<br />

retirement he also found expanded<br />

opportunities for<br />

woodworking, ceramics,<br />

stained glass and family genealogical<br />

research.<br />

He is survived by his<br />

wife <strong>of</strong> 70 years, Irene;<br />

daughters, Susan (Jim<br />
