of Conway, AR

December 21, 1933 - May 24, 2015

Keith Wayne Herekamp was born on December 21, 1933 in Walker, Arkansas to Matthew and Paradine Feathers Herekamp and left this world to join his Lord and Savior on May 24, 2015at 7:22 A M.

Wayne was a member of Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in Conway for over 30 years.

He is preceded in death by his parents, and infant sister, brother Ray, brother-in-law Charles Roddey and his first wife, Darlene Trewyn, the mother of his children.

He is survived by his wife of 30 plus years, Marie Acree Herekamp,, a son Donald (Sheila) Herekamp, a daughter, Sandra (David) Schockley, four step-sons, Robert David (Sarah) Andrews, Cary (Brenda) Shirley, Richard (Peggy) Andrews, Daniel (Sherrye) Bounds, 11 grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren, 1 great-great-grandson, a sister Marie Roddey, a brother Roger (Dean) Herekamp and sister-in-law Mary Herekamp, a host of nieces and nephews and friends.

Wayne was an ''over the road'' truck driver for 32 years, but he had a real love for his cows. He enjoyed taking care of his cows, and calves more than anything he had ever done. He was a strong man, building fences by hand, vaccinating his cows alone, birthing calves, This is what he enjoyed the most. I only gave him the hammers, nails, water and sandwiches under the shade tree where he worked.

God gave us 30 plus years and now God needed him in Heaven. I'll see him again soon, then we will be together again forever.

Wayne was in the United States Army as a SP3 Lineman, Signal School at Camp Gordon, Georgia and he was stationed in Phoenix, Arizona.

Marie,
We hated to hear about Papa Wayne. He was definately like my kids 2nd Grandfather. Garrett will never forget the trips to the farm and bringing home box turtles. I couldn't have asked for Papa Wayne to be any better to both of my boys. He will be missed. He has touched lots of little people's lives.
Love y'all both!
Kevin, Tonya, Garrett and Sawyer

Dear Marie and family,

We were so saddened to learn of Wayne's passing. It was a great delight and privilege to have him as a friend and neighbor. We mourn with you in this loss, but look forward with great anticipation to that certain reunion we will have with him in the clouds when we all meet the Lord in the air.

You shall all be in our prayers,
Ann & Ed
