Not sure what to say?

We are so sorry to hear about the passing of Wayne. A better man in this world would be hard to find. God bless you all during this difficult time. I know Wayne will be sorely missed. Love Ed and Patricia

Wayne was the most caring husband, dad, grandpa and great grandpa I have ever known. Deb and Wayne shared a love like no other. I am so blessed to have them as part of our growing family. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Wayne touched all of our lives and he will be missed.

Wayne and I worked together at Club 64 I was a busboy and he worked in the kitchen. Then we worked at Gibbs Western Kitchen and he was great to work with. When we were washing the pots and pans he would sit on the side of the sink and sing songs about canoeing and looking for a bear. You had to be there. He was always talking about Deb this and Deb that and Prom was coming up and I kept pushing him to ask her out and then to Prom. It took alot of talking as he was so shy about asking Deb...

Dear Deb, family, and friends, We mourn with you and for you. Wayne was part of our youth and our story. My favorite memory: the day before Roger's brother, Bob's funeral, Wayne came over and shared stories and laughter, making a hard time easier. Wayne's obituary was obviously written with loving hands. We pray for comfort and ease of sorrow for all who loved him. Fair winds and following seas, Wayne. With Love from Sharon and Roger Plummer

Wayne was one of the hardest working technian I can remember,he never turned down a job, always smiling and joking and called me Cuz because my last name was Powell. Wayne will be missed by all who had the privilege to know him.

Such a good man! You have my deepest sympathy Deb and family. He was always friendly and kind to me and could be so funny! I KNOW he'll be missed. Sending prayers to you all.

I have been thinking of Wayne every since he told me of his illness. What a very nice man. He always was helping everyone. My regards to his family. We all will miss him. Dennis Schmoker

So sorry for your loss. The last time I saw Wayne was at Dodge Park. We hadn't seen one another in a number of years and had a very nice visit. My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Powell family.
