David and family:
I was saddened to hear of Wayne’s passing. I have fond memories of working with Wayne in the early 70’s at the Mobil Oil corporate office in Fargo. He was always smiling and just plain fun to work with. I still remember his hearty laugh. Clara was also a wonderful person and they were so proud of you, David. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Dear David & Family;
I read of your father’s passing today and wanted to express our sincere condolences on his passing and that of your mother’s prior. I got to know your folks pretty well when I interviewed you for the Air Force Academy years ago. They were really nice people and I always enjoyed speaking with them when we ran into each other.
Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.
I was very saddened to see that Wayne had passed away. He was a remarkable man. He was a terrific sales representative for our company and was a happy face to see every day at the company. Not an accomplished fisherman, he showed up for a company fishing trip to Lake of the Woods with a fishing “rig” purchased at the drugstore. After he took an immense amount of ribbing he got into the boat with me and a couple of other guys. We rigged up to do a litttle trolling , the guide giggled the whole time watching Wayne handle his gear. All of a sudden in a shallow bay Wayne proclaimed he had been “snagged” by a log. Soon , the log came to life and thrashed the water enthusiastically much to everyone’s shock. Wayne had caught a Muskie. No other fishing expert in the boat had ever caught a Muskie in their life. Still haven’t. Well, Wayne had been elevated to the status of Neptune and had silenced the rest of us on the trip and then some. Thanks for the memories Wayne !!
Gear David and Family,
I wanted you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and for Wayne. I always enjoyed visiting with him and your Mom at various events at South. He was proud of all that you have accomplished. May he rest in peace.
