Wayne was one of the best instructors of all time! I learned so much from him over my college years and loved running into him from time to time.

We have been friends with Wayne and Sharon for more than 50 years. Wayne was to me the older brother I never had. We shared many good times together as our children were growing up and well beyond that time. We will definitely miss Wayne and will be praying for Wayne, Sharon, Heather and Justin and their families.

Wayne always had a smile and great conversation. It was always fun to catch up and it started with a big hug. He loved catching up with those of us from the neighborhood that grew up with Heather and Justin. He will be the BEST guardian angel to his family. Sending love to you all. ??

Sorry to hear of the passing of Wayne. I first met Wayne at UND-Williston. He was teaching Ag classes and I was in the PTA program (and eventually taught in the program making me a co-worker). Gatherings on campus would be entertaining with Wayne, Roger Halverson, Arne Lunzman, Bob Bell, Gerald Basol. I graduated from high school with Heather. Justin was a student of mine in the PTA program. Wayne was smart, articulate, quiet, and well respected. He made my first years teaching a great experience.
