My family and i are Eternally grateful of having the pleasure of knowing and loving wayne. We are all devastated and extremely sorry for the harris family's loss . Wayne was an incredible person he was so generous and 100% genuine . Roy introduced us to wayne 4 years ago to help us restore our house only to find out wayne and i knew eachother for years (when i attended beauty school on south street) he was always so nice to talk too then and so very positive which i instantly gravitated to we had the best conversations . It was so amazing to reconnect years later and have him work on our house which wayne turned into our home. Wayne Spent a lot of time here there's not one Room in our house that he didn't make some type of repair or come in behind a bad contractor, so we spent a lot of time together i felt like he was family ( even called him uncle wayne) we bonded he even included us in some repairs (quite entertaining if i may say we had many laughs) ( many at my expense) but thats ok i loved seeing him laugh and smile and looked foward to his company. Each day i would always have his coffee ready for him (black of course) and then he would get to working we were so intrigued on how he could make something out of nothing so beautiful he had a gift for sure. I will never forget my friend and our family will always miss seeing/ hearing his voice . Thank you for being such an amazing human being you will truly be missed . Love you uncle wayne r.i.p .

Dear Wayne, I will always hold you near and dear to my Heart. You were an enlightened being not often understood. Always giving a helping hand and smiling like a Cheshire Cat. My heart is heavy today, I will miss you dear friend. I am happy you are free of pain and sorrow. Little traces of you are sprinkled all over Bucks County & Lambertville with the incredible craftsmanship you blessed so many with your talents. Last I must say you took great pride in your Children & Grandchildren and you did an incredible job teaching them what love looks like. Rest in Peace now Dear Wayne I will miss you in this life. My prayers are with you and your family. Peace & Love Jacqui
