Coach DeSutter was my high school PE teacher. He was always a fair and very nice man. May he rest in peace in Glory with our Lord and Savior in Heaven.

I am so sad to hear of Wayne´s passing! Your family was so kind and helpful to my parents. I know that they really enjoyed watching your boys grow up across the street from them. I will never forget the awesome letter you sent me when Doc passed.
I know Wayne will be missed by a tremendous number of people that he helped, coached, and mentored over the years.
As an alumni of Plainfield High School I know we sure enjoyed having him coach our football team!
My condolences and prayers go out to your family.
