He graduated from Sparks High School in 1955, where he excelled in three varsity sports. He married Catherine Azcarate, his high school sweetheart in 1956. Wayne started his contractor's business and quickly built a successful career in residential and commercial construction. He received his unlimited contractor's license becoming the youngest man at the time to do so.
He coached both sons in baseball and came close to going to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA. Wayne enjoyed watching his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren in all sports. He liked playing lotto, camping, duck hunting, fishing, boating and jet skiing. He belonged to a bowling league and was a member of the Reno Elks Lodge for 59 years. He and his wife Cathy enjoyed traveling and experiencing new adventures around the world, creating many unique memories.

So sorry to hear of my former class mate and good friend of yesteryear's passing. I always admired Wayne for his prowess on the football field and considered him a young man that would excel in his chosen vocation. He did so. My heart is with Cathie and family in their time of sorrow.
