MERCER – Wayne D. Meunier, 74, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, Jan. 13, 2026, at Redington Fairview General Hospital in Skowhegan.

Wayne was born on May 11, 1951, in Skowhegan, Maine, the son of Joseph Ludger and Arlene Elizabeth (Austin) Meunier. He grew up in the Norridgewock area and graduated from Skowhegan Area High School with the class of 1970.

On June 23, 1973, Wayne married the love of his life, Linda True. They shared 52 years of marriage together, building a life rooted in family, hard work, and enduring devotion.

Wayne was employed at the Norridgewock Shoe Shop early in his working years and later became a dedicated member of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, Local Union #320, working out of Waterville and Augusta. He proudly worked as a Millwright until his retirement.

Wayne enjoyed sports throughout his life, both as a participant and a coach, and was a loyal New York Yankees fan.
