Dear Bea,

I lighted a candle today at my home in remembrance of our dear Wayne, your husband and our dear friend.
I just found out today and want to send you mine and my parents' Bob and Mimica's condolences to you and your whole family.
He was a great mentor, scientist, leader, husband, connoisseur of music, art and wine!
I will remember many things about his amazing character and humor, and my dad Bob will never forget his hospitality and friendship and their...

Our encounter with Wayne was short but our memories of him will last a lifetime. He was a true gentleman and we were humbled to be in his presence.
Rest In Peace Wayne. Max and Anne McNiven. Peak Hill Australia

This news brought both happy and sad feelings. As a pos-doctoral fellow I worked with Wayne at the Population Council and we would frequently talk on the weekends when he would come into the lab where I would be working quietly on my own. As an Australian far from home, he was exceptionally supportive and encouraging. In hindsight, this time at the Pop Council, and Wayne's commitment to improving reproductive choice, child health and science, were pivotal in my career.

We are thinking...

Wayne will be missed by friends and colleagues in the American Society of Andrology, but also long remembered for his many contributions to our understanding of male reproductive health.

I am one of the lucky ones who worked for Wayne twice. He taught me so many things in science and in life that made me today. For my first oral presentation at ACS meeting, he went through the slide deck and had me practiced with him three times-I am still following the rules he told me every time when I prepare a presentation.
Wayne was a foodie and took me to his favorite Mexican restaurants many times and we would eat jalapeños in fists:-). Parties at his house were always flowing...

I will always remember what a champion he was for science at CBR. He would often go into the labs and talk to the lab heads and look at the data and what was on the bench.
