We are both so sorry for your loss. You all took good care of him the last few years. I know he is looking down from above with pride and gratitude. You all now have another forever angel watching over you.

What a remarkable and wonderful life Wayne lived. He was ambitious and determined. That determination led to all the successes and accomplishments that Wayne achieved in life. Yet Wayne also had a thoughtful and compassionate side to him as well. Those closest to Wayne knew him from all angles. Wayne is now at peace, free from the effects of Alzheimer's disease, and with Kathy, enjoying better times with our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Although we were looking forward to Wayne's 84th birthday this month, God had other plans. Wayne will have his first birthday in God's Kingdom with his brothers, George & Terry, his parents, and all those who preceded his arrival into God's Kingdom. What a true celebration it will be. We can still celebrate because Wayne's spirit will be with us for always. 🙏✝️🌠
