Not sure what to say?

We'll miss his sharp wit and sometimes sharper opinions!

In the small town of Kellyville lived a man we all knew, he hung out at the gas station and would always talk to you.

Sometimes about the weather, sometimes about the rain, sometimes he just wanted to talk about the game,

Any sport in any Town it didn't matter that's where he'd be found, Monday through Friday at every sporting event he cheered for Kellyville but that's not why he went.

He went for the people, the kids he all knew some were his relatives but...

I will miss you Grandpa. You always made me feel loved.

Wayne made Kellyville a better town. He loved the kids and they loved him. He will be missed. Prayers to his family.

Thank you, Wayne for all your support over the years to Kellyville athletics and being such a loyal part of the Kellyville community. Prayers to the Baldridge family. You will be greatly missed my friend!! Kellyville Baseball and Softball
