Not sure what to say?

Dear Nina, Andrea & Floyd,
I have always had fond memories of Wayne visiting in Alaska. I remember the Caribou hunting trip when he took Josh along w/ the men of the family. Then at the BBQ he reenacted Joshua's first Caribou kill. He made Josh so proud of himself that day & I thought, what a great Dad he must be! At Floyd & Andrea's wedding he was just a joy to be around the way he teased Andi about her LOW cut gown & took pics of her cleavage. He was so much fun. I cannot imagine the...

Miss Nina,
One of my favorite memories is going to New York for the first time and sitting on your back porch eating fried chicken, watching the kids throw dirt clumps at each other in the yard. Wayne didn't waste a minute in his genuine "Are you gonna finish those?" shaking his finger in the general direction of my food. haha Ahh, the country. The both of you were so kind as to not only welcome me with open arms into your house, but make me feel like I was part of the family. You both...

Wayne, you are in my heart. I wish we had more time to get to know each other better - 14 years doesn't seem long enough. Iverson and Zofia will miss out on time with their Grandpa but we have many fun memories to carry us through until we see you again. I love you, Old Man.

Dale & The Sheesley Family,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this very dificult time.

Nina, Dale, Floyd so sorry for your loss and hope that the memories of the past keep you strong. I know your loss cannot compare to mine as his friend, but one of mine and Wayne's best memories is of our trip to Alaska where we watched our three son's live out a dream hunt. You could see the pride in him when both his son's got their caribou, and the same look when my son did the same. Proud father, good man, and a friend. I will never forget the things he let me share with him over the...
