    I am so sorry for your loss. I’ve been thinking a lot about Wayne recently and all the fun times we had together. One of our choir trips to Hawaii both Wayne and I went scuba diving together (rental spot on the beach); Wayne wasn’t able to put the respirator in his mouth and go under-water; he would come up gasping for air, we all had a great laugh. He was truly like a second father to me and will be greatly missed. I love you all and am sending thoughts and prayers your way during this time.
