He was predeceased by his siblings, William Needham, Doreen McCarthy, Faith Needham and his beloved cat Tai.
Wayne was a man's, man. A perpetual bachelor, a hard-working laborer, who enjoyed and lived life on his own terms and was loved by many. After a hard day's work, he would love a beer and a good game of Pool or Cribbage with co-workers and friends. He was in construction and specialized in plastering services, he was a proud Mason and member of The Boston's Plaster's Union, Local 31, with whom he worked for many years before retiring. He was a great guy and an even better uncle; he loved his nieces and nephews dearly and had special relationships with each. He will be gone but not forgotten, may he rest in peace in the loving arms of the lord as he reunites with those who have predeceased him.
Services for Wayne will be private.
