I went to school with Wayne at Charles Carroll Elementary, class of 1965. Wayne was a good hearted and friendly guy. My sympathies to his family.

Wayne was a very sweet man. I enjoyed working for him during my time as the Resident Banker at DPCC, he always wore a smile. I was very proud to be a part of his ceremony when he became a Fourth Degree Knight of Columbus, too. I know he will be welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven.
