My condolences to Wayne's family and friends. We went through all of our school years together, first at Frank Allis and then LaFollette. Our families lived within blocks of each other as I grew up on W. Lakeview Ave., too. May the memories and stories you share these next few days and weeks bring you some laughter, some tears, and peace. Georgia Pollard

I enjoyed visiting with Wayne during our time together in school and service in Wisconsin Air Guard . He alway had a good story with a smile that usually involved something out doors. He truly was a good person and friend. He will be missed but not forgotten.

Although...Wayne and Myself worked in different shops at Truax, we did cross paths frequently. I enjoyed are visits as they would surely migrate towards the sharing of are White Tail hunting experiences.

I remember Wayne and Dennis Forstrom from childhood. We are cousins via their mother Irene Cuila...my dad's cousin. I can't believe that they are both gone....it's shocking. We lived only 30 miles apart and visited with Irene and Harry often. So many memories. My dad's youngest sister, Kay...about 85 years old....didn't know that we are all related to Wayne and Dennis....I told her today....8/29/23. This is all hard to absorb... Walter Brey
