Waynes NewYears birthday parties watching his vacation movies.... crabs..Wayne loved his crabs and he had his own process for preparing them.. wow were they good! Wayne I'm going to miss you.... The time was way to short.....

I have truly lost my longest known and BEST FRIEND. My heart is heavy for Mom and Betty and all the rest of the remaining family. Certainly the several years of my regular Saturday morning routine; coffee and conversation with Wayne will sorely be missed not to mention so many, many more activities we did together over these last 40 years.

I am so sorry for your loss. My condolences to your family. He was a close school friend of my daughter Karen Rhode Foertsch who lives in Chicago. They always had a good time together and saw each other at the last class reunion.
