Robert Wayne Poore, 76, of 133 Shearbrook Drive, husband of Dorothy Alice Harbison Poore, died Friday, September 11, 2020 at his home.

Born in Greenwood, he was a son of the late Robert Calvin and Virgie Bell Gibson Poore. Wayne was employed by Duke Energy as a lineman, supervisor and retiring as a field engineer after 34 years.
