Buz “Wayne” Learn

Buz “Wayne” Learn, 70, of Ronan, passed away on April 27, 2022. Buz was born on Dec. 31, 1951, in Kalispell, to Maretta (Davis) and Richard Learn.

He enjoyed spending his days out in the woods logging and running heavy equipment, especially his excavator. On Aug. 31, 1969 he married his wife of 50 years Arlene Learn at their family ranch house in Perma. They raised three children: Waynet, Wayne and Levi.

Buz loved spending time with his family and was always eager to work outside. He was an amazing father and grandfather/great-grandfather. He loved to talk about anything that had to do with logging and the woods that was his true passion and he found great joy being in the outdoors and enjoying the little things in life

Another one of Buz's passions was serving his God, Jehovah. He was baptized as one of Jehovah’s Witnesses in 1968 and was a joyful servant of Jehovah. He found great comfort and joy in the scriptures.

Buz is survived by his children Waynet (Jason) Bowers, Wayne (Tiffany) Learn and Levi (Zodee) Learn; his grandchildren, Shelby, CJ, Justine (Manny), Miranda (Royce), Whitnee (Chancey) and his great-grandchildren, Emma, Leticia, Natilee and Thomas and his siblings Jim, Ernie, Rod and Ken Learn and many loved nieces and nephews and extended family.

Buz’s family looks forward to when they will see him again!
