Charles Wayne Hickman, of Lawrenceville, GA, passed away on December 25, 2022, at the age
of 84 after a brief illness. He was the son of the late Roy Clayton Hickman and Stella Crigger
Hickman of Aiken, SC.
In addition to his parents, Charles is preceded in death by his beloved wife, Jenelle Williams
Hickman, and siblings Barbara Brewer and Ed Mason.
Born in Middlesboro, KY, he moved to Aiken, SC as a teenager and settled in the Atlanta area
with his wife and children.
He is survived by his three children and their spouses: Cindy (Kyle) Flanary, Pam (Bill)
Dunford, and Tony (Angie) Hickman; his grandchildren and spouses: Rob (Tina) Stubbs, Scott
(Nathalia) Dunford, Mallory (Brandon Wyatt) Dunford, TJ Hickman and Andrew Hickman; and
his great grandchildren Piper Stubbs, Everett Stubbs and Helena Dunford. He will be missed by
many.
Known as Wayne, Charlie or Mr. Wayne to his friends, his family called him Daddy Wayne,
Daddy, Dad, and later, Grandpa, Papa and Pops. He would answer to any of them. He had a gift
for storytelling and never forgot a punchline when telling a joke. He loved sports and was a high
school football star. As his son was growing up he became a much loved coach for little-league
baseball and football.
Besides loving his family, his favorite things were sports, cold beer and fried shrimp.
A Celebration of Life will be planned at a later date.
