Wayne Yoder Jr. age 55 of Wautoma passed away on Saturday, August 10, 2024 at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN after his battle with cancer. He was born on December 19, 1968 in Hazelton, IA to Wayne J. and Amanda (Helmuth) Yoder. Wayne owned and operated Yoder’s Auction service along with holding his Real Estate License. He loved to auction whether it was car auctions, horse auctions, antiques…when there was an auction….he was there. Wayne won the Wisconsin State Champion Auctioneer in 2008, competed at the National level in Auctioneering and won numerous State Advertising Awards in many different categories. He even traveled to Alaska to Auctioneer and really enjoyed that. Wayne liked to sponsor locally and was very involved in the community. He enjoyed being outdoors, hunting and had a smile that would light up the room but according to his coffee gang, made the worst coffee. Wayne will be sadly missed by the auction community, his family and friends.
Wayne is survived by his brothers: Joe, Jonas (Wilma), Dan, Enos (Jill), Levi; sisters: Anna (Andy) Yoder, Ester (David) Yoder, Mary (Freddie) Yoder; numerous relatives and many friends. He was preceded in death by his parents and sister-in-law: Mary Yoder
