Wayne has a universal appeal. This is evident in his wide and diverse circle of friends. He was the first person I met when I started hanging around the Schaumburg and Hoffman area. We then hung out outside of bars and moved on to baseball games, festivals, the movies and being on the same softball team. Also the legendary birthday parties and the Buckle/Kenny Live shows. We were different yet still brothers. Eventually we started greeting each other by raising our middle fingers! Now to an outsider this would look rude, disparaging or a sign of bad blood. Totally not the case, it was indicative of our juvenile sense of humor. Like when we were talking about dating or networking apps and sites with Mike. I didn't know anything about these sites and Wayne said, "You should check out Match.Com. That's how I met Olga". Without missing a beat I replied, "And look how that panned out"! This was after the divorce mind you. Without missing a beat Wayne flipped me off! Wayne, I wish I could talk to you one more time. Life wasn't supposed to be this way. Brother you will be missed by many. You will be forgotten by none.
