Love you dad - miss your voice...but knowing I will see you again makes my heart smile ! I am so grateful Josh and I got to spend a few days with you and Ann before you passed. God Blessed us that way - cuz that's who he is !!! I am thankful and blessed you are my dad.

I was so sorry to hear about Wayne. I am at a loss of words for what to say to console you for your loss. I know how very close you were. Wayne was an amazing person in so many ways and we all thought the world of him. He was so kind and pleasant. I will remember him always for his kindness. He was always so nice to me, and always had a kind word to say about everyone. I will so miss seeing him at the Y. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Wayne will continue to live in our hearts. Ann - you did so much for Wayne, and he loved you for it. The Ann that I love and admire for her strength and grace did not get that way because things just worked out. She got that way because things went wrong and she handled it. God bless you Ann for all you have done. They say that being loved by someone gives you strength, but loving someone deeply gives you courage. Use that courage now. Please accept my condolences and know that I am thinking of you.

It is with a heavy heart that my brother in law Wayne passed. He suffered a long time and it is a blessing that his suffering is over. We will miss Wayne, he was a good man, always willing to help those in need. A loving uncle to Mari, Jerry, Dan and Carey, he never said goodbye, he said I love you with kisses and hugs.

so sorry to hear about Wayne, my prayers go out to Ann and entire family
