Wayne was a good friend and I worked alongside Wayne for many years. I would come over to his house and we would talk about our adventures in the elevator trade meanwhile his dog and I would play together until Wayne would have to cage him because we were getting to hyper . I enjoyed the time we spent together. Rest in peace Wayne, your friend Randy.
