I knew Wayne in High School. The memory I have of him is that of a bigger than life person who was always looking out for the little guy. I was usually the little guy he looked after. May the Lord’s comfort be with you. Jim Kinsey

Destiny

I had the great pleasure of working with Wayne for many years. He was not only a great friend, he was my fellow Raider in a “Donkey” group. My favorite lunch buddy, and my very dear friend. I will miss him, and our Elmers days.

To the Phelps family, I’m very sorry for your loss. May you find comfort and strength in God’s promises in the Bible. Revelation 21:4 and John 5:28,29 show that there will soon be a time when there will be no more sickness, or death, and we can see the loved ones we have lost in death again. Please accept my deepest condolences.

Michael Minter

Donna my deepest sympathy and condolences to you! I hope you see this, as I’ve been trying to get ahold of you for years! Please contact me
