Dear Mildred,Bill,Theresa,Don,Jackie and children,
We are so sorry for your loss.
We will always remember Wayne's "large" sense of humour. He always had something funny to say or a story to tell.
When Wayne and Theresa invited my son, Tyler to stay with them on the ranch while he was working construction in Calgary, Wayne taught Tyler how to be a cowboy!

He taught him how to put up barb-wire fence just as he had taught Tyler's Dad, Ron, many years earlier.

Wayne will be sadly missed.
All of his memories will always be with you to cherish.

Love and blessings,
Linda, Mark, Tyler, Brock and Randi-Lynn Hutchison

To Theresa & family, Mildred and Bill we extend our sorrow on learning of Waynes passing. Wayne was always special, a friend and associate for over 40 years. Wayne had time for others and always brought a warm and uplifting greeting. Wayne will be missed by everyone that knew him. May the comfort Gods of presence be with his family at this time of great loss.
Always,
Bill & Maralyn Wilson

To the Berglund family. Wayne was always the guy I relied upon for solid advice on matters pertaining to the community associations, the Dunbow/Davisburg area and the MD of Foothills. He provided wonderful encouragment in my career as a community leader and as a Councillor. I shall miss him.
