Wayne is a great man and had a positive impact on me as a young man. He taught many boys how to be great men and he had a contagious laugh. He shared his talents and knowledge with the young men and men. I feel very fortunate to have known Wayne and to have stopped in to see him on a recent trip to Utah. My prayers and wishes go out to the family. I know that Wayne and Ken are enjoying some silly campfire jokes and laughing together. God bless.

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Wayne. He was a kind and compassionate person and my cousin. My thoughts and prayers go out to Eloise and all family members. I wish I could attend the funeral but I am unable to travel, so I send you all my love. xx

Wayne has been more than a brother-in-law to us the last 48 years, he has been a dear friend. He always had a smile and his blue eyes twinkled when he told a joke .Allen and Wayne had many wonderful experiences over years of camping with Varsity Scouts. He was a special man and we will always remember him with love.

Eloise,
I am so sorry for your loss but know that Wayne will no longer be suffering.
What a wonderful man! He helped our family so much when James died and I don't know how the children would have made it through that first Christmas without his help.
Wow. Looking at his photo here is just like looking at a twin of James.
You have always been such a lovely wife to him and loyal mother, even through all of your own sorrows.
I miss you and hope we can get together for lunch soon.
Here's hoping that Wayne and James are out fly fishing with their dad.
Much love,
Ruth Magleby
