Wayne was born in Winnipeg on January 25, 1944. Wayne had a long career working at Canada Safeway working his way up to becoming a store manager in 1978 and retiring in 1995.

He loved the outdoors, an avid fisherman, hunter, a camper when younger, and loved time spent at the family cabin at Gull Lake. Wayne loved travelling, from a weekend in Grand Forks to the many places he visited in his life. He was always asking when the next game was for his grandsons happily watching soccer, baseball and football.

He loved watching sports, playing golf and always had an opinion as to how the Jets or Bombers could be better. He was well known for sharing his thoughts on all subjects and current affairs.

He loved all his dogs, his current dog Fifi being the smartest dog ever!
Wayne has been cremated and as per his wishes there is no service. Wayne leaves a huge void in all of our lives.

Goodbye my family, my life has past, I loved you all to the very last, love each other for my sake, For those you love don’t go away They walk beside you every day.
