Wayne L. Piper

I want to say to the entire Piper family that my family continues to pray for you and offer our condolences. Find peace in knowing that Mr. Piper's big heart touched many people who will never forget him. Stay in God's will and continue to make him proud. Jannifer Lassiter

Sending love and prayers from Smith/Agnew family from Altoona, PA. Neighborhood love went above and beyond. Check out this black and white article on these brave and beautiful young brothers. Wayne is sitting on the second row. That´s my brother as their coach.

I pray God will comfort Dwayne, Gloria, Marques, and the rest of the Piper Family during this sad time. My condolences for your loss.

I was extremely fortunate to serve with Wayne, while we were assigned to Bolling Air Force Base, in Washington, DC. He epitomized professionalism, compassion, courage, and extreme regard for others. I truly admired his ability to address difficult challenges, topics, and resistance, that were inherent in the Air Force Equal Opportunity program. Wayne embodied exemplary skills, talents, and professional maturity, that enabled him to persevere, and accomplish his objectives. He personified excellence in all he did, and I was truly blessed to know, and learn from him.

For over 14 years, I had the honor of working alongside a colleague who became a dear friend. He brought energy, joy, and warmth to every room - never afraid to give a shout-out, share a laugh, or start a conversation with anyone. He believed in me before I believed in myself, often reminding me that I was meant to lead. As I try to live up to that encouragement, I carry his words with me. From all of us at CPS, we love him deeply - he will be missed but never forgotten.

Sending Heartfelt Prayers Upon Prayers and Heartfelt Condolences to the Entire Piper Family and Giving God Almighty for This Absolute Man of Character, Faith, Family. While My Heart Knows God's Timing is Not Ours I AM TRULY HONORED that Uncle Wayne Took to a Kid from a Broken Home, Who Used the Streets To Survive and His Beloved Piper Family Gave Me a True Family to Live as One of His/Their Own to Heal The Harden Walk of Life Adversities. I Thank You Uncle Wayne For Your Mentorship, Love and Guidance. I Thank All of The Piper Family for Sharing Your Beloved Father, Brother, Uncle, Grandfather and Beloved Friend with Me.

May God's Hands of Healing Be Upon You All.

You suffered enough my brother. God called you home to ease your pain and take you to a better place
Rest in heavenly peace. We love and miss you

Wayne, you were a wonderful person and a pleasure to serve with in defense of our nation. It's been a long time since our days at Bolling, but I look back on them fondly! Rest in Peace with our Lord.

Wayne was my favorite cousin. We had fun times together both in Altoona and when he was in Maryland. Words cannot express how much he was loved and will be missed.

To Cynthia and family , may God bless you and keep you in his care at this very difficult time. Wayne was a wonderful person ,very caring kind and had a great appreciation of music. It was a great pleasure to have known him. Wayne will be sorely missed at Christmas dinner and the fun we had playing games with the Baltimore crew in San Antonio. Rest in peace my friend.

Uncle Wayne, I will always cherish our moments together. Not just because I loved your company, conversations, love of music and sports. ..
You were an understanding ear, when I felt no one could hear. You were a light, when I felt I was falling into night. You were a rope, when I started to lose hope. You were pat on my back, when my own confidence may lack. You were and always be the Man I will always try to be, because you believed in me!

Rest in Peace My Brother!

Love Always, Andre'

My deepest condolences to the entire Piper Family. So sorry for Your loss and praying the memories made and the Love shared with Wayne will echo in Your heart for years to come.
I met Wayne several years ago when he was visiting his sister (Cynthia Mercado) here in Maryland. Cynthia and I both was on the Trustee Board. At that time I needed assistance in cutting down a tree on the property. Cynthia recommended Wayne and introduce us. We bonded in brotherly Love immediately. Since that time we would periodically call each other until his illness.

Rest in Peace Brother Wayne Piper. I too shall see You over Yonder!!

My deepest Condolences to the entire family. Uncle Wayne was a man who lived a life worthy to be proud of. May he rest in peace and in power. With love and loving memories, Sonja Berry

Wayne warmly greeted me during my first week at CPS Energy. We made a special connection knowing we were both AF veterans. As we continued to work together over the years that followed, we shared unforgettable conversations and experiences that made us and our work very special. We became "champions" for each other and I truly appreciate the way he spoke into my life and the genuine interest he showed in our CPS Energy team members. His warmth, laughter and fellowship will be truly missed.

Joann & I pray that his children, grandchildren and family find peace and comfort knowing that Wayne left such an amazing legacy in so many before entering into his rest!

You will definitely be missed cool pipe rest in power my good brother much love to the piper family and friends at this difficult time
