Dear McAllister Family....I am so sorry to see this in The Enterprise online.
Wayne and I were childhood friends - all through North Jr High and Brockton High.
Although I have been away from Brockton for many years, when I think back to growing up there and to remembering those times, Wayne is always included in my memories. I know he grew up to be a wonderful man....as he was a wonderful guy to begin with then. I had heard he was a fireman and that he was proud to be one and that he was also very proud of his family. I'm glad he had a happy life. I wish you all the best possible at this very difficult time. It's hard to say "good-bye".

He was the life of the party, a great cook and host. May your memories of all the good times sustain all of you in the days and weeks ahead. May you continue to come together with great stories of Mr. Wayne. Blessings to all of you.
Sincerely,
