The first memory of Wayne was when I was a young lad and he came to the house to visit my mother and father to show them his new lime green Duster. I asked him what kind of work he does and he told me he was an air pilot..I was gullible and he fed off it...lol. We joked about that later on in life. Years later we actually worked together at Strathcona Mine for a shift as I was a junior driller and his partner was off so he got me to work with him. He kept telling me to slow down, I guess I was proving to him that I could run a longtom with the best of them. Later he would tell everyone that when we went to bolt with the stoper that I connected the air to the water and vice versa..he was such a tease.
You will be sorely missed.
