Wayne was a nice man and I am sorry for all his friends and family. I loved speaking with him in the store about his love for his family and the town where he worked, and he was loved there by all. He had a wonderful smile and warm heart, his family was always on his mind.
He was too young and too full of life to be taken. Ed and Cristen Vincent
