I never realized Wayne lived in the same city as I, until some years ago.  Wayne always was pleasant, always greeted me as we would pass each other on the 7th floor at the WSSC Headquarters Building.  I know he experience some challenges the latter years of his time at WSSC but again when I saw him, he always gave me a pleasant ‘Hey Ken’ greeting.  I am praying for the Black family for the God’s peace, protection, and comfort during this time as well as our WSSC family.   Rest In Peace, Wayne.

I was so sorry to learn of Wayne's passing! 

My memories of Wayne always include Becky; memories that bring a smile to my face every time.  Their love story was like no other! As I recall, they met at the intersection of 450 and Millstream Drive, during a crazy car fire drill.   My memories of their love story include:  good times at the roller rink, McDonald's, and Bowie High dances to their storybook wedding, first apartment in Laurel and the the start of their family ~ Christopher and Jonathan. 

Christopher and Jonathan - May you find comfort knowing your dad is reunited with the love of his life and together they will be watching over you and yours.

Rest in peace, Wayne!  With love, Dawn


It saddens me to learn about the passing of Wayne.  I worked with him at WSSC.  He was always cheerful and smiling.  He had a great attitude and kind disposition.  I have fond memories of heading up the street to Blimpies with him on Friday's to grab a sub for lunch.  He would always ask for extra of every topping.  My condolences to the Black family on your loss

I am very sorry to hear this news and offer my sincere condolences to the family. I had the pleasure of working with Wayne at WSSC for a number of years and remember his wonderful personality, warm smile and always positive attitude.  Wayne was a true team player and a super nice guy.  Rest in peace, Wayne. 

I wanted to express my sincere condolences to the Black and Martin families. And my heart goes out to  Christopher and Jonathan. Thank you very much for taking care of him these last few years. I had the privilege of working at WSSC first of all with his brother Steve, then their dad, and then finally Wayne. I always felt like I was part of the family. Wayne was the life of the party and he gave much joy to all the people around him. Finally, Becky and him are back together again.

Please accept my deepest condolences for the loss of Wayne.  He was one of the sweetest and nicest persons I have met.  I worked with Wayne for many years at WSSC - he was just a genuinely nice person who always had a smile on his face.  We had a blast at our office picnics, team building functions, etc.   He was always willing to lend a hand or assist with anything.   When his wife Becky passed away, a huge part of Wayne's heart left with her.  He is now at peace with her.   Rest in eternal peace my friend. 

Condolence. I worked with Wayne at WSSC and I remember his infectious smile.  He was always so sweet to everyone and loved to chat.  I remember Wayne retiring and his visits to the credit union in the main building many times after that retirement.  He will surely be missed. He has struggled with many problems over the years and I feel he is truly in a place of peace now that he is reunited with his wife Becky. May they walk the path together forever.  I send my prayers and sympathy to his boys, family and friends.

All of my memories of Wayne always include Becky!  And they all bring a smile to my face.  Their love story is like no other.  As I recall, it started at the intersection of 450 and Millstream Drive during a Chinese fire drill and grew from there.  In my heart of heart I feel Wayne waited a long time to be reunited with his sweetheart, Becky.   As hard as it may be at the moment, Christopher and Jonathan, may you find comfort knowing your folks are finally together again, watching over you and yours.  With Love, Dawn

My deepest sympathies for the loss of Wayne like many have stated Wayne had the best laugh. My favorite memories include him playing funny tricks and trying to make others laugh. He was also kind and the way he cared for Becky was palpable.  I know Wayne is laughing and dancing in heaven with Becky. Thinking of you all.
 Rest In Peace Wayne 

My deepest sympathy and condolences to Christopher and Jonathan for the loss of Wayne. I will never forget Wayne teaching the Kansas family how to eat a Maryland crab or having BBQ when visiting us in Kansas. Good times with lots of laughter. The laughter will live on in our memories — Wayne and Becky had the best ones :-).

Sending love and well wishes your way - Joanna

My condolences to Chris and Jonathan, it has been a tough time for Wayne and family dealing with all his medical problems and the loss of Becky.  Rest in peace Wayne!  

Wayne was a wondeful brother in law. He had a great laugh. I will always remember how he was there for my sister Becky through her illness. I will miss him.  Love to Christopher,  Marisa and Jonathan. 

Wayne was part of our family from the time I was 13. He fit right in and became part of us in no time. I’ll never forget his laugh and his joy for life. He loved my sister and from what I could tell, missed her every day he lived without her. Dear Lord, please watch over his beautiful boys who have lost their parents far too young in life.  Rest In Peace dear Brother in law and  Hug Becky for me . Sending all my love to Jonathan and Christopher .

This is when Wayne met the future in-laws for the first time

Uncle Wayne was a great guy.  Always made you smile and he always had a smile on his face too.  He and Aunt Becky were so good together and now they can reunite in heaven. They will be missed.

Jonathan and Christopher I am so sorry for your loss.  I hope you can find comfort from friends and family.

Uncle Wayne was the life of the party.  Always quick with a smile and the best laugh.  He took terrific photos and could usually be found behind the lens, like in this picture.  He and Aunt Becky will definitely be missed.  

My condolences to Jonathan and Christopher; I am sorry for your loss.  May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.  
With love, Shannon    

Wayne always had a big smile on his face. He would always be kidding with you. I always love this picture of Wayne and Becky in our living room in Bowie head to the Homecoming dance at Bowie High school. I will always have my memories and I feel comfort knowing Wayne is with Becky now. I will miss them both. Love you two, Diana
