A good man taken way too soon! Although I only saw Wayne on the job I considered him a good friend! He always stopped me and took the time to shake my hand when he would see me at work! He was a great man and one of the best operators I have had the pleasure to work with! He will be greatly missed! RIP good friend!

I grew up with Wayne & couldn’t have loved him any more if he were a brother. I was married to his sister for 20 years.
Work had taken Wayne to Arkansas where he met & married his wife Kathy, whom he married & they had & raised a great family together at their home in Arkansas.
Work took me to the West coast & after a divorce in ‘94†I remarried my current wife.“Chris†& we resided at our home in Salt Lake Utah.
Though Wayne & 1 hardly saw one another anymore, he remained very dear to me.
I miss our time hunting, fishing, racing cars & just having a good time.
Thoughts & Prayers go out to his loving family,
Ray Tyson

I saw him & his lovely wife at Kroger in North Little a few months ago & introduced him to my husband; I told him, this is the man that gave me those pen/stylist that you use..... it was nice seeing him again. Prayers for his wonderful family. ðŸ™ðŸ½ðŸ™ðŸ½ðŸ™ðŸ½
