He was always ready with a smile, a hug and a story or two every time
we visited over the years. " Thanks for the wonderful memories Wayne."
It's your turn to "Go Rest High on that Mountain"

When my Aunt Ola was in Pallitive Care at BGH I saw Wayne there. He was in the hospital for a time. He was sitting in the TV room and I went in said Hi to him and he looked at me and said "Hello Helen". Surprised that he knew me. I guess something must have clicked in his mind when he saw me. Condolences to Charlotte and all his family members.
