Wayne and Donna were blessed with 50 years together, and four beautiful children, Clint, Kirby, Michelle, and Debbie. His pride and joy grandchildren, Matthew, Nathan, Piper, Jessie, Emily, Rowan, Travis, and Teagan. They were the bright stars of his world and loved each and every one of them.
After retiring from the RCMP Wayne moved back to Prince Albert and ran his own memorial business until complete retirement.
Wayne loved travelling with family, and watching and cheering his grandchildren on during their individual achievements.
Wayne was an inspiration to many and loved by many as well. He will be deeply missed by all who know and loved him.
