Our hearts are with the family. Sending much love to Wayne, Stacy, and family.
Thank you Wally for being a beautiful example of a Father and husband and Grandfather. I wanted to tell you that I recognize all of the positive things that were passed down from you!
Your unconditional love for your family, your pride in your work, your ability to accept things that are different, your sense of humor, how to be strong in marriage and most importantly to me was your acceptance of me and Cameren.
I love you dearly and will miss you for now.
Love Renee

Please accept my condolences for your loss. I know Wally is a great loss for your family. I feel like part of your family since we have shared a Grandson for 32 years, even though we live so far apart and we haven’t been able to spend time together. My heart is with you especially at this time.
Truly, Vivian
Wayne, I did not get to meet your dad but I know by raising you he was a great man. May he rest in peace. Amen
