My condolences to the porter family on Wayne's passing

December 13, 2018

I am so saddened to hear that Wayne has passed away. I always wondered where he went after high school and Cobleskill College. Wayne was a great guy. Our parents (especially our Dads) were friends. His sister (I am not sure which one) was in my 4-H club. Times were so much fun back then. With sympathy, Elaine (Michaelis) Lee
