I worked for Wayne and Shirley for quite a few years in Remer and Jennie is my Best Friend. I consider them as part of my life as they are family to me.  I remember a time in the beginning when I was almost scared of him or found him intimidating. Over the years I’ve listened to him talk (brag) about his Grandchildren and his Love for Shirl.  Mark and I are very lucky and privileged to have been given each a “Wayne Box” a few years ago and we will cherish them forever.

Last time I saw Wayne, he was at the N40 in Remer. We went out for a campfire supper, cooked by Wayne of course. When we arrived he wasn’t there, but then here he came. He had borrowed Sarah’s 4 wheeler and was driving the grandkids around. I know his health was really starting to slow him down at the time, but to look at him then, that day, when the sun was shining, birds were singing, campfire burning, and he was giving rides to the kids. He was happy.  The way he looked that day, will be the way I will always see Wayne. I Love You Wayne, from my whole heart, Thank You for Everything, and I Love You.
