Carol, Kim and family, I will miss Wayne. We walked together in Quesenbury and visited as friends and neighbors as long as he could. Wayne fought so hard to keep going. The courage he showed during such stressful times made him a true Hero. I share your loss, but thank God for His goodness and the pleasure to have known Wayne.
