Rochelle, I wish I could say something that would make your world a better place right now, but I can't...I can't take away the tears. I wish I could. Always remember that I am here for you anytime! Take care of yourself. Mainly, turn to those who love you for support. I know, I did.
Love You always,

I knew Wayne when I was in high school. We had some really good times. Many nights we sat up talking for hours. As we went our separate ways we lost touch, but I will never forget the memories we have and the smile he always had. Wayne will always hold a place in my heart.

Wayne has always been friendly. I have spoken to him several times in passing playing pool and he has always spoken nicely to my fiance and I . I will remember his smile and friendliness. My heart is with all his family and friends.

Dear Wayne. My first real memory of you was in 1977. We had arrived out from New Zealand to visit our American relatives for the first time I was 14 and you were 5. You showed me your Incredible Hulk toy. That was it we hit it off straightaway. We will miss you. Our thoughts are with you all.Love James and Family

To Wayne's family, friends and long time friend Paul, My family has known Wayne for almost 20 years. Wayne did work at my homes (5 different ones)over the years. His bright smile would greet me at the door at 8am ready to work. My 4 kids, Paige, Catherine, Franklin and Jon and especially my dogs, Wrinkles and Moby loved Wayne. He played ping pong with Jon, shared a cup of coffee with me, listened to all the drama that goes on in a house hold of six and had a funny story or joke to share. Wayne was a kind soul with a tender heart. He was on top of the world about getting married to Roshelle. I met his sweet daughter Brook. He always wanted the best for her. My dear friend Wayne, we will deeply miss you and thank you for all the wonderful things you did to help me and my family for so many years. You are a man with many gifts which you gave freely. I trust that you are now resting in peace. Our prayers are with all of those who knew and loved Wayne.
Much love,
Anne and Lance Johnson

I pray everyone's memories of brother Wayne be forever good memories. We always greeted each other with open arms and I count him as my brother. We shared our philosophy and ideals on life, family, politics, religion, and any other subject without any hard feelings or animosity. Wayne, you have been a good friend and I will miss you dearly. It has been a joy being near you and a blessing having you in my life. You helped me to stay real and true to myself no matter what.
