Wayne was a loving, jovial spirit. He loved family, food, and life itself. He loved the outdoors and spent many days in his yard visiting with his Uncle Thomas. We are in pray for all as we bid him farewell. With love,
The Family of the late Thomas K. White, Sr. (Christiana, Thomas, Jr, Michael Joseph, Carolynn)
