    I have many memories of Wayne from Jeep rodeos to guitar playing on the porch, my favorite one is when he took me “hunting” and all we brought were cameras, he told me this way we can shoot the animals more then once. He was an amazing man that would give you anything he had and be there for you in seconds. Love you all.
