We remember Wayne as a fun loving and friendly man who enjoyed people and sharing his stories with all. He enjoyed dancing to good country music at the VFW and Eagles with Caroline. A true gentleman who is going to be missed by all who knew him. God bless as he does the 'cowboy waltz' across heaven. CT & Suzie Travis
