Cletus Mitchell Bayne, born to Praylo and Eunice Messer Bayne on April 28th, 1940 passed into Heaven on Saturday, October 8, 2022 after a brief illness. He was suddenly taken into glory while sleeping. Praise God who is full of mercy.

His beloved grandchildren, Tanner Powell of Jacksonville Fl, Wesley and Olivia Gayle Bayne of Travelers Rest. A brother, Ray Bayne and wife Shirley. A sister, May Pruitt. A very special Aunt, Jewel Bayne. Several very close Nephews.
Retiring from Milliken after 30 years, Cletus enjoyed a 22 year retirement. He spent most days on his hillside with the company of family and friends. Many, many stories being shared with great laughter.
He was known as Papa C to his grandkids. He was always the first to deliver a birthday card. He lived a simple life and will be missed by many. He was a faithful watchman for his family, always alerting us of upcoming weather and offering shelter in the storm. He knew exactly what farm animals his granddaughter Olivia had and kept a close eye on her farm.
Cletus believed in Jesus Christ and attended Lima Baptist Church. We thank the good Lord for blessing Cletus with 82 years of life.
A celebration of his life will be at Lima Baptist Fellowship Hall on Sunday, October 23rd at 1:30 pm. The family welcomes everyone to come enjoy a meal.
