  1. Marty and Allan, I'm so sorry for your loss. Wayne was such a nice man and not only made so many of us look better, but also made us feel like part of a community. Gone, but never forgotten, Wayne will be deeply missed.

  3. Although we lost touch over the years, I remember Wayne as was a true professional, a dedicated clown, and a good guy. "Real Circus" in every sense of the word.

  4. I posted a video of Wayne singing in the kitchen back a few years. He used to love to break this song out from time to time when things were tough.

  5. Hey everyone Wayne is my grandpa and a very good one at that. He always liked to joke and play around, He enjoyed working on the shoes or in his really big barn when not working he was spending time with his family. He worked really hard and enjoyed what he did. I can remember helping him at a clown convention in Texas. I now know that he is in a better place and not having a hard time instead he is giving everyone else a hard time at the circus up in heaven where he is at. I miss him dearly and will always remember him no matter what.
