Later in life, he drove a school bus for Bradford Special School District, delivering kids to and from school and many extracurricular activities. He was a proud fan of Bradford basketball, Union University basketball, and Tennessee football, and he could often be found fishing, hunting, and camping with his friends, children, and grandchildren. He faithfully attended several churches over his life including Shiloh Baptist Church of Bradford, TN, Northside Baptist and New Haven Baptist Churches of Milan, TN, and, at the time of his passing, he enjoyed listening to sermons from Pathways Church in Sevierville, TN.

He never met a stranger and spent much of his free time helping friends and neighbors with odd jobs like fixing boats and working on houses. He would help in any situation and make time even when he didn’t have it. To know Wayne was to love him. He was comfortable to be around and genuinely desired to be present with those he loved. Those who remain to carry on his legacy and wisdom are his children David (Faine) Williams, Amanda (Joshua) Hall, Amy (Weston) Gentry, and Kaitlyn Jones, his grandchildren Hazel and Grayson Hall, Elijah and Carla Eve Gentry, his sisters Sherry Newsom and Debra Brown, and his loving partner Teresa Wilson.

Billy was born at home in the Idlewild community, where he remained all his life, caring for his family and the property that was passed down to him from his family 150 years earlier. With the birth of his daughter, Billy focused on providing stability for his family. He began a lifelong study of the Bible in 1969 and was baptized as one of the Jehovah’s Witnesses in 1972, serving faithfully for years until the end of his life. He began work at Foamex in 1969 and continued there for 35 years, providing for his family, and gathering many friends along the way. After retirement, he worked at Co-op where he was affectionately called "Billy Tank" because of the tanker equipment he drove. He was a humble man who gained the respect of all who knew him. His grandson, Ryan, was so precious to him. Billy spent many hours helping him appreciate the beauty of nature. Together, they fed the cows, rode the tractor, and topped it off with Billy’s favorite thing, eating ice cream after a hard day’s work. He truly loved his family, friends, and neighbors and will be deeply missed by all. Memorial services for Billy Howard Herndon will be held at 2:30 p. m. on Sunday July 9, 2023, at the Humboldt Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses with David Gilliland officiating.
