I worked with Wayne at Shield glass for 2 years, he was a dedicated, intelligent and talented guy. He passed on his glazing knowledge to me as a youngster. I was in Gibsons this past weekend and thought of visiting him, I had no idea what had happened to him. I remember his stories of his youth in Manitoba and his infamous gold duster he bought cash from the dealership there. He was an honest guy who always had good advice and man I always wondered how he beat the newspapers high score in Scrabble. And could complete the entire Sunday crossword section in a half hour lunch. I will drink a pint for you Wayne. God bless your soul. - Posted by: Chris Grimard (Former Co-worker) on: Apr 07, 2016

To the family and friends of Wayne, I was saddened to learn of Wayne's passing. His picture in the paper shed glimpses of the past of a big, strong, willing worker with a very respectful edginess. He had a genuine work ethic and a happy way about him. I personally enjoyed working with Wayne along with all our co-workers. It was nice to see Wayne was still in the glazing industry. May his memories bring comfort and peace to the family and to those who had a special walk in life with Wayne. Rod Westmacott - Posted by: Rod Westmacott (past employer and co-worker) on: Aug 27, 2014
