William Waybright

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

William Nevin “Buster” Waybright, Jr., age 67, of Franklin, formerly of Boyer, passed away Saturday, November 16, 2019, at his home, following a long and courageous battle with cancer.

Born September 20, 1952, he was the son of the late William Nevin Waybright, Sr., and Millie Ryder Waybright.

Buster was a 1970 graduate of Green Bank High School and a 1974 graduate of Glenville State College. He worked for the Bank of Marlinton from 1974 to 1976 and then for Enviro Energy.

His career as a car salesman began at Bartow Motors. After moving to Franklin, he operated Frank-lin Motors, worked at Lou Ziegler Ford, re-opened Franklin Motors, and was a sales representative for Mit-chell Chevrolet.

Buster loved to talk to people and was active in the community. He served on the Franklin Town Council. His love for antique cars led him to organize the Treasure Mountain Festival Antique Car, Truck, Tractor and Engine Show for 24 years – a show that has now appropriately been named after him. He enjoyed bowling and adored his children and grandchildren.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a brother, Tim Waybright.

He is survived by his wife, Pamela Sue Conn Waybright, whom he married August 31, 1996; his first wife, Regina Cassell Gum, of Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina; four daughters, Nevette Hall, (Winston), of Ocean Isle Beach, North Carolina, Shawn Brock, of Harrisonburg, Virginia, Jessie Ash, (Matt), of Winchester, Virginia; and Pam Judy, (Johnny), of Franklin; a son, Javan Waybright, (Daniel Harrell), of Holden Beach, North Carolina; a sister, Lori Wayne, (Jeff), of Arbovale; a brother, Danny Waybright, (Tifaney), of Cross Lanes; nine grandchildren, Benjamin Burke-Ash, Kayleigh Brock, Lucas Ash, Riley Ash, Dalton Ash, Aidan Ash, Jessica Judy, Kayla Judy-Scheibner and Kyle Judy; a great-granddaughter, Josephine Harper; and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.

Celebration of Life Service Saturday, November 23, noon at Kimble Funeral Home in Franklin, with Pastor David Rittenhouse, Pastor Julian Rittenhouse and Elder David Hartman officiating. Family will receive friends from 10 a.m. until time of service.

Those attending the service are encouraged to dress casually and, weather permitting, drive their antique vehicle to the service as a tribute to Buster.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Buster Waybright Antique Car, Truck, Tractor and Engine Show, c/o Lori Smith, 23 Colletts Lane, Franklin, WV 26807.
