Mr. David Wayne Robinson, age 74, of Caledonia, MS, passed away Saturday, November 22, 2025, at St. Vincent's Hospital in Birmingham after a brave fight against leukemia.

Wayne was born May 7, 1951, in Columbus, MS, to the late Ivan Almus and Edna Faye (Rickman) Robinson.  He served in the Alabama National Guard for over 25 years.  He was a county agent for the Alabama Cooperative Extension System where he retired with 30 years of service working with farmers, gardeners, and 4-H students.  Wayne, or Batman as many called him, was native to Lamar County and had many friends and family in the community.  Some of his fondest memories came from shooting rifle matches with National Guard teammates, road cycling with family and friends, building projects with his grandchildren, cooking, singing in his church choir, going on family trips, and teaching Sunday school.

He graduated from Lamar County High School in 1969.  He later graduated from Mississippi State University with a Bachelor of Science in 1978 and then with a master's degree in 1983.
