Wayne is survived by his high school sweetheart, Nancy, with whom he shared 49 years of marriage, as well as his children, Matthew Windisch and his wife Teri from Doylestown, and Amy Jaross and her husband Neil from West Chester. He is also survived by seven grandchildren; Marissa, Erin, Ryan, Brendan, Michael, Brady and Rachel; and his brother, Wendell Windisch.

I played Basketball with Wayne for many years. First at Colburn court in Brookhaven and then he played on my team for 7 years in the Parkside Basketball League. He was older than most of the players so we always looked to him for his leadership. He also had killer "J" .
