To all the Willmes family,
I had the pleasure of meeting Wayne through Tony Marro and Marro's Equipment and Trucks 13 years ago at Genesee Ford. Since that time I had bought several Expeditions and Trucks from Wayne and had the pleasure of doing many business ventures with him. When he left Genesee Ford he kept in constant touch with me via E-Mail and the never ending jokes and funnies he sent me. You were truly blessed to have such a kind and honest man as you father, grandfather and brother. Wayne was truly one of a kind and I will miss him dearly. Brenda Cosentino and Tony Marro.

Brooke and all the Willmes family,
I am so sad for you all, but I do believe that Wayne will be with David. I am sorry that I won't be able to come to show my respect, but please know you are in my heart and prayers. Brooke, hopefully I will be able to see you for a minute before you go back to Philadelphia. Please give my condolences to everyone. Sally Crocker-Valle Cape Vincent, NY

Hi, honey, I'm so sorry for the loss of your Dad. He was a wonderful man and Grandpa and I always loved him. I'm so glad I kept in touch with him over the years. He's with Dave and Debbie, now, besides his parents. God bless him.

"Wayne you are now you can be in comfort with Dave again. He will be able to show you what he has been doing these years! Those wings that you will be getting, well you will be able to fly to those places that you haven't been before! Take care of your loved one! By the way, can you make sure Dave is still keeping his tools organized! Thanks!"

Dad, I hope you will finally be reunited with Dave. I found a nickel on the ground yesterday like Dave always used to find and thought it was a sign you guys were back together. I love you so much and am glad we got to spend your final days together. Don't worry about me...I believe you when you said that I will be alright. Love you.
