My condolences to Nell, Susan and other family members. I lived next door to them back in the 1950's and when they moved to Leesburg, use to spend part of my summer with them. So sorry to hear about Wayne.

I had the pleasure of growing up next door to "Uncle" Wayne and "Aunt" Nell on College Avenue. I remember fondly how sweet they both were to Linda and me. I'm only sorry we lost touch. Wayne was a fine gentleman. My sincerest sympathies to Nell and Susan and the family.

My sincerest condolences go out to Wayne's family. I had the good fortune to work with him back in the early '70's. He was always a joy to work with. May God grant his family the peace that passes all understanding.
