Not sure what to say?

A truly honorable man. My condolences to your family.

I was sad to hear about Wayne, my mother Elsie Shannon Canada was daughter of Phoebe Livingston Shannon, I too remember and enjoyed their visits at the reunions at Denlow, Missouri. Wayne was so interesting and fun to talk with. Also, Mother named me after Virginia, she said because she was such a lovely lady.
God Bless. Virginia Lee Canada

We were so sorry to hear about Wayne. Phoebe Shannon was my grandmother. Lucille (Shannon) Hancock Ketchum was my mother who passed away last year. I remember Aunt Lucy visiting the family in Missouri when I was young but I can't remember her family. Still am sadden by your loss. God bless you all.

My Mother (Mabel (Shannon) Upshaw and one of your first cousins) always spoke highly of you. She always looked forward to visit with you when you came to Missouri. The first time I remember meeting you was in 1970. I was having trouble with an Oliver tractor and you and Souder Livingston stopped to help get it started.
I was about 2 miles from home on the Fox Creek road south of Denlow. I too enjoyed visiting with you in the late 1980's and early 1990's when you came to the Denlow...

We will miss you and remember you forever Wayne!
