Wayne was my childhood friend in Laurel Run. We were in the same grade and spent many hours together in school and out. At the Laurel Run reunion I saw him again and he was still the kind and loving person he had always been. You were very lucky to have had such a warm, friendly, loving and caring Dad. My condolences to all of the family. I know he will be greatly missed by all. Cathy Nielsen Toran

Sorry to hear about Wayne. Lot of years ago I was a Baby-Sitter for him and his sister's. He
was a very nice young man. Wonderful family.

I met Wayne in 1967 while working for the Orloski Family. It was a friendship that ended up extending to my wife, children and others. He helped me to get a job years later that turned out to be a stepping stone to a CIO position with an auto group in Florida. He has helped my family members in many ways, but the strongest tie was our friendship. I always tried to see him whenever I was in town. He made it a point to stay in touch with all of us. I am stunned to hear of his passing, the Good Lord must want a great deal on a car... I shall miss him, my family shall miss him. Our love, respect and prayers go out to his family and friends. Requiescat in Pace Old Friend, God Bless.
Love,
Steve & Margie Newman and Family

Sometimes in life, if you are lucky enough, you get to meet someone as kind, loving, caring and genuine as Wayne. Always a smile, always caring, always a story to be told and never a hurtful word or intention. You were a wonderful Father and Grandfather and worked tirelessly to provide for and protect them. I wish our lives wer full of people lid Wayne. When I left the presence of his company, I new that I had left a friend who cared about my well-being. I will miss you Wayne. Your words and deeds made a difference in my life and my family's life, although I'm sure you never knew that. You are at peace now in a place that we all wish to get to some day. If there driving cars up there, I know you will be arranging the sale and scheduling service. God bless you my friend. We will have a lot to catch up on in the near future. Make sure you take notes. I don't want to miss anything. Godspeed to you. Greg Barnic
