Estel “Wayne” Adcock age 76 of North Lake, Wisconsin entered eternal life on Thursday, December 3, 2015 at

the Williamson County Medical Center in Franklin, Tennessee.

Wayne was born in Doddridge, Arkansas to Emit Estel and Vera O. Adcock on September 3, 1939. He was

united in marriage to Linda A. Collom on August 18, 1959 in Atlanta, Texas. She preceded him in death in

2012. He was united in marriage to Emily Guderyon on September 21, 2013 at the Evangelical and Reformed

United Church of Christ in Waukesha, WI.

Wayne graduated with a doctorate degree in theology from the University of Dubuque in Iowa in 1984. He will

be remembered fondly of his devoted ministry to God and the church until he was no longer able as of

September 2015. Wayne was a member of the Milwaukee Presbytery and a pastor for many years at: Kettle

Moraine Presbyterian Church in Hartland, WI, E and R U. C. C in Waukesha, WI., St. John’s U.C.C in Hartford

and Slinger, WI, and at many other churches within Wisconsin and around the country.

Wayne helped coordinate and participate with the Nike Shoe Collection, Relay for Life, the Girl Scout Day

Camp, and several domestic missionary trips as well as a few in Mexico. He also co-founded the Bonner

Scholarship Program at the College of the Ozarks at Point Lookout, MO as well as Camp Lookout, which is a

camp for inner city children. Wayne enjoyed time with his family and his cherished grandchildren. He loved

to sing and often sang in church.

Wayne is survived by his loving wife, Emily Guderyon of North Lake, WI; his loving children, Rebecca (Russ

Haase) Carver of Neosho, WI and John Adcock of Hartford, WI; cherished grandchildren, Erica Anne, Austin

David, and Lauren Estelle Carver; and his dear sister, Ola McNaughton of Arkansas. He is further survived by

many nieces, nephews, siblings-in-law, other loved relatives and friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents; his parents-in-law, William “Punch” and Ruth (nee Waldrip) Collom;

his beloved wife of 53 years, Linda Adcock; his son, Mark Adcock; brothers, Gerald and James Adcock; and

sister, Jan Hickey; and siblings-in-law.

Memorial services for Wayne were held on Tuesday, December 15, 2015 at 4:00 p.m. at the First United

Methodist Church in Hartford (738 W Monroe Avenue Hartford, WI 53027) with Pastor Paul Johnsen officiating.

A Celebration of Wayne’s life and graveside services with family and friends will be held on Saturday June 11,

2016 in Doddridge, Arkansas.

In memory of Wayne, contributions to the charity of one’s choice are appreciated.

Rev. Wayne Adcock, beloved interim pastor

and dear friend of so many members of our

congregation, passed away on December 3rd.

He will be so deeply missed.

PASTOR NOMINATING COMMITTEE UPDATE:

As we announced in November we conducted an on-site interview with a potential candidate for our open pastoral position. After frank discussions, questions and answers it confirmed our initial thoughts and discussions on qualifications that the fit was there. We issued Terms of Call and awaited the candidate’s decision as to acceptance. The candidate decided not to accept our open position here at KMUPC. We, as all of you, I am sure, are as disappointed as we were. We continue to review and qualify PIF’s as we continue

the search process.

During the Advent season we lit the candles of the Advent wreath, the first being Hope. It reinforced us in our journey to seek the candidate God directs us to. We trust God in this decision process. We again ask you for your prayers of support as we continue in this search for our next pastor and pray with us that God will

direct us to the candidate that is the best fit for us at KMUPC.

Joe Edlhuber, Bob Flatt, Emily Guderyon, Heidi Kemos, & Patti Sobchak
