I am so sorry and sad to hear of Cousin Wayne's passing. He always had a smile and so pleasant to be around. I enjoyed your visits up here and the visits in N Little Rock. Also the visit at Nadine's with his mom Aunt Dorothy was a special time. I have many memories of Wayne and his family that will always bring a smile to me.
Thanks for the memories Godfather.
Love to you Polly, Carole

Polly and family, I am so sorry to hear of Wayne's passing. He was such a dear man who always seemed to have a smile on his face, and he always tried to make others smile as well. He had a heart of gold and put other people's wishes above his own. We have lost a dear man. God bless you in this time and give you peace.
Thinking of you, Cathy Kelley
