Our condolences to the family of C. Wayne Stevens, who passed away on Friday May 1, 2026 in Meadowview, VA. Wayne was a down to earth, committed public servant known for his dedication and service to his family, his community, and to youth groups, who genuinely cared about the people of his community, and the success of Washington County. As a 3-term member of the Washington County Board of Supervisors from the Monroe District, he was well respected for his preparation and active participation in decisions impacting the entire county. We will all miss the “Man in the Bibs” for the contributions he made to our county.
We believe in democracy, inclusion, cooperation to achieve community needs,
seeking agreement instead of argument, and equal rights for all.
