I am so sorry that Wayne has left this earthly home but I know he has gone home to a better place.
I know you will miss him as we all will. We tried to visit him often in the recovery centers he had entered and he was looking for to going home the last time Floyd and I visited him.
Prayers for you and your family.
Wayne may you Rest In Peace.
