Brother Wayne was an active, but quiet leader at Washington Street serving as a deacon for a number of years and overseeing our Furniture program as a part of our benevolence ministries. His heart for the poor and the hurting was evident in all he did... as well as his love for his family and his church family. He is going to be greatly missed! -Jim
