I worked with Wayne at FedEx for several years. He was so hard-working and always a pleasure to be around. He will be greatly missed. My condolences to his family during this difficult time.

I put the 3 candles on this wall for Mom, John and me. We miss you so much! I just wish I knew when the pain would go away. It hurts so much to know I can never see or talk to you again. If I only knew that Friday that would be the last time I'd ever see or talk to you, I would have turned around and come back in and spent the night hanging out with you. I love you Dad . My heart is broken.
