My deepest sympathy goes to Wayne's family at this difficult time. Wayne was my Mom & Dad's (John & Eleanor Sadoski) attorney for as long as I can remember. When they became ill, he would come to their home with his services. His warmth and caring manner was apparent even after they passed on. He is remembered fondly by our family.

Wayne always cared.He would always ask:how are you doing.
That speaks volumes about the type of person he was.
Rest in peace Wayne.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. I was a classmate and friend. I worked with Wayne at Camp Eastwood where he met his beloved bride Rose. He was also a good friend to my wife Diane.

Wayne was a classmate and good high school friend to many of us. He couldn't make our annual Class get-together due to illness, so we sent a card signed by everyone in attendance.
