His whole family Kathy, Eric and Jon are fabulous people and we mourn the loss of Wayne as part of their extended family. God Bless Wayne and watch over his family as they go through a very painful loss of a great person that did everything for the benefit of his family. Wayne, you will be sadly missed by all of us you have left behind but our memories will last forever.

My first memory of Wayne is baseball. Always there always around the game...as I grew Jon and I were "crazy teenagers" in the 90s and Wayne had so much patience with us. He would give us that look- the half smile look- shake his head and laugh...
Working at Yankee for the short time I did- he couldn't have been nicer and helpful. The Moody's always opened their home to me and I will forever be grateful for that. I send my thoughts- my love and my prayers from my family to yours. God bless.
