I was assigned in Wayne´s design
Squad when I first started working for SCDOT. I must have worked 2 years in his squad. He was very helpful, considerate and a joy to work for. I moved on
To be a consultant coordinated
And few other responsibilities.
Wayne and I took lots of trip
Together in state and out of state to monitor bridge consultants´ progress on bridges
Designed for the state. We remained friends after we both
Retired. We took a number of
Photos together. Memories of Wayne will Always be with me
Surely with his family and all his
Friends. May he rest peace.
My condolences to all his family
From
Ralph and Marie Rubeiz
