RIP old friend
It was an honor to know you and work with you-

A great man , he was my first lead at Canadian , a true gentleman.

I’ll always remember “Wayner” with his soft spoken demeanour, much like the purr of his vintage “Stang”. But put them both to the test…and they’d put you to rest. I always respected that…I just didn’t expect THAT!

It was with profound sadness  I learned of Wayne’s passing.  My sincere condolences to Denise, Tracey & Jennifer and to all the family, may your memories of Wayne  and the love you shared ,give you solace at this difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with you and remember we never lose our loved ones, they accompany us; they don’t disappear, we are merely in different rooms.

I just heard about Wayne’s passing today March 25th from a mutual friend. We worked together at Toronto Airport for a couple of decades and he was a great guy. 
My sincere condolences to his entire family and close friends.  🙏

Dear Denise and family

Dear Denise and Family:  Deepest sympathy for you loss.  Wayne was so dedicated to you, his family,  and we enjoyed the many pictures and stories he proudly shared.  He was the family historian,  music and Dylan expert, and best cousin!   Have great memories of  times with him as a child and in later years on the golf course,  chatting on the phone,  and times together.   He had a great talent of developing and maintaining endearing relations with family and friends---including Grandma Hawkins and my parents.   He will be sadly missed by so many! 
Fondest regards,  Sharon & Harold Cook

Denise and Family: I was so sorry to hear this devastating news about Wayne. I enjoyed his emails about our growing up years and we shared stories and photos about the Alliston days. His love for his family was always first and foremost. I wish you all strength in the days ahead. He will always be with you.

Very sad to hear about Wayne, I will miss my friend and gym buddy, but I know Denise, Larry and Jan will miss him more. 

Sincere condolences to the family and close friends.

Oh Denise, we are so sorry for you.  Wayne was such an affable fellow, so easy to speak with, and such a great neighbour.  We really enjoyed our chats at the Karen Street picnics, and connecting on walks.  Such a loss, and our hearts go out to you.  We are here to help in whatever what we can.   
Christine and Terry

Denise and family,  please know that we are thinking  of you at this most difficult time.  Words cannot express our sorrow to hear of Wayne’s passing.  What a nice, nice man he was and we do hope that the  legacy of love that he left behind  is a great source  of comfort to you.  We are holding you all close to our hearts.
We are also thinking of Elaine and Glyn and what wonderful friends they were.  We miss them both terribly.  
Hugs.

Love you  uncle Wayne,  I am truly honored to have had such a great uncle  as you. You will always be in my heart .  Love ❤️ always Derek

To have given birth to such an amazing woman like Jennifer and granddaughter Love- he must have been a pretty special man. Hugs from a distance and written words cannot express how much I feel for your loss my friend, 
Trust in the process of life,Jennifer. 
With gratitude for our friendship,
Myra
