Wanda Lee (Bayman) Clevenger, 78Albany - Wanda Lee (Bayman) Clevenger, age 78, passed away Sunday October 29, 2017 at her home surrounded by her family. She was born on May 12, 1939, the daughter of S.W. "Pete" and Lillian M. (Goff) Bayman. She married her high school sweetheart, James D. Clevenger, Sr. on June 29, 1958. Married fifty-nine years, they raised four children and lived in the Albany area all their lives. The couple owned and operated Jim Clevenger Digging & Landscaping, J & W Storage, as well as other business, farm, and rental properties. Wanda's life was marked by a deep love for her family, her church, and her community. A member of Albany United Methodist Church, she served in numerous capacities. She and Jim oversaw the operation of the church food pantry for many years, and Wanda sang in the choir. Along with her sisters Darlene and Shirley, they performed as the "Bayman Sisters".
