Wayne spent the last 22 years living in Chackbay where he enjoyed mowing his lawn while sipping his favorite drink. Wayne also enjoyed cooking, trawling, and spending time over the last 55 years with his friends and family at his second home in Grand Isle. Wayne’s greatest devotion was to his grandchildren and their activities. He was always present to support them and certainly made his presence known as proud Papa. At this time, we would like to apologize to all of the umpires and referees who encountered Wayne in their lifetime.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to the Wounded Warrior Project.
Ordoyne Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
