Wayne was a very good friend, teammate, and really more like a brother to me. There are no words that can express the sense of loss and shock that such a great guy should leave so soon! My heart goes out to Debbie and the Kids and I'll remember all of you in my prayers.

Wayne gave me my first job when I turned 16 years old. Wayne was my store manager on a couple different occasions. Wayne was not only my store manager, but also my friend. I could always go to him whenever I needed help. I respected Wayne very much and he will be missed!!! My condolences to the Schuler family.

I worked for Wayne at the Shackelford Store for a couple of years. I want to let you all know how deeply sorry I am for your loss. Wayne was always able to lift your spirits, he was always smiling (or laughing) at you, he was the kind of guy you can depend on and trust. I pray your family finds peace in the days and weeks ahead. He will truly be missed.

Wayne,One of my best friends ever. Even though we didnt have the opportunity to see each other later on in life Wayne wae never far from my thoughts. Teammates we walked home from practice together every night. Our regular stops were Hudson Dairy and Bag of Chicken.Wayne stayed fit and trim and I got fat.. He always was a better baseball player than me and most other kids. I will miss WAYNE. All the other kids that Wayne tutored and mentored and coached will also miss Him dearly. So long old friend till we meet again. Roger Ridenhour Rogersville Mo.

My condolences and prayers to the family. I worked with Wayne at National Supermarkets and again at Schnuck Supermarkets. He will be missed.

Wayne was my store manager for about a year at the Shackelford store. He was always very nice, and helpful to me as a young man and even after I moved on to the office. I spoke to him several days ago about helping a customer and he was kind, funny and helpful as always. All we can hope for when we close our eyes for the last time is that people will remember us as a good person. That is most certainly my memory of Wayne. May God bless and keep him and the Schuler family in your time of loss.

My condolences and prayers go out to the family. We spent many summers at FAAA watching him coach my son Christopher's baseball team to several championships. Every time I stopped in at Schnucks, Wayne always had a smile and a hello for me.

Condolences to the family and will keep Wayne and you all in my prayers. I always enjoyed my talks with Wayne either at the store or some ball field and he was very proud of his family.

Wayne was my store manager for 7 years. He was an great manager and a wonderful person. He practically saw me grow up. I remember talking to Wayne and Ron about me and my husband trying to get pregnant. Wayne just laughed and said "That is the fun part." I will always remember his great sense of humor.
