He was preceded in death by his mother, Linda Mae Hollis.  Wayne was loved by so many and had many nicknames, El Gato, Lil Wayne, Weenie and many more. His favorite thing to say was WAYNE’S WORLD. He had a powerful love for the Denver Broncos, especially John Elway and had an amazing humor. He will be missed. The one way we can all find peace is knowing that he is no longer suffering and he is looking down on all of us with love. We love you our dear brother, rest in peace.
