Wayne and Martha were married at Martha's home in Chesterhill, Ohio on July 10, 1942, after having met as students at Ohio University in Athens. Following Wayne's United States Army service in the Pacific theater during World War II, they relocated to Burbank where he began a 34 year career as a public school teacher and administrator. They moved to Ventura in 1962 where Wayne continued his career in education in the Ventura Unified School District until retirement in 1979. Martha also taught, retiring from Buena H.S. in 1978.
They remain involved in First United Methodist Church, the Optimists, family activities, and the activities at the Ventura Townehouse where they reside.
