Am so sorry about Waynes passing. I have known Wayne for years. His horses were down trhe street and we shared many experiences. Like floods colis etc. He also was responsible for me getting another Chow when I was not ready for one. He nagged constantly but because the dog was in such bad shape he did not want to get his truck dirty. So I had to go to his Mom's and get him. After many weeks of getting him beautiful and healthy, I had 12 wonderful years with "Linus" Thanks to Wayne and his Mom. Wayne was a great guy, and I also called him Mr. Clean. Happy Memories

I served on active duty with Wayne and reserve duty with him,which was a total of six years. Lots of fond memories as he kept us in stitches with his good humor,and he really was Mr.Clean. Never heard a discouraging word from him in all that time. my sympathy goes out to his family.

We are saddened to learn of the passing of Wayne. It's been a lot of years, but we have very fond memories of “Mr. Clean” as we called him. Always starched & pressed, (I think he actually repelled dirt), no matter what he had done that day. We will always remember Wayne with a smile and the good times we all shared with him at Ross Downs. Sending our Love and Prayers to Kenneth, Monty, Vicki, Carol, Shelly and the rest of the family. We are so sorry for your loss.
Much Love to you all,
Claudine, Renee & Terry
