Dear Family, 
I am deeply concerned for your loss--but it heaven's gain. Wayne was truly a friend to myself and the children always stating that we were family. I will always have memories of the church picnic on the mountain last year when Wayne participated in the singing (matter of fact we sang a song together). 
I admire the fact that he and Diane weathered the storms and remained together until "Death did part" but there is a promise that all will be reunited. I pray that God sustains the family through this sad loss of Father, Husband, Brother, Granddad and Uncle as well as friend to many. 
Regards, 
Charlotte Shifflett
