To Wayne's wife and family,
I am one of Waye's classmates from Windsor Central School. Although living in California, I do keep up on news of the area and attend Class of '55 events. Several of my siblings and their families reside in the area and we also own two apartment complexes in Binghamton. Have missed seeing Wayne for many years, as he did not attend the class functions when we did. We pray that God will be with you in this time of need. Love and blessings to you and the family.
