Dear Karen and family,
Please accept our deepest sympathy for your loss. We were shocked to learn about this today. Wayne was so helpful and kind to us when we first moved to Restoule. Our property looked so nice thanks to his lawn cutting expertise. Over the past 5 years we were very privileged to get to know him. Always with a smile...he was a great person. We will really miss him. May his memory be eternal.

We were shocked to hear of Wayne's passing. We certainly enjoyed our visits with him and he sure looked after our ATV's when it was Winter storage time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I just can't believe it. I'm so sorry Karen, Devin and Wade.
Wayne was amazing. He was kind, funny, hard-working and always wanting to lend a hand. He always knew how to make you smile and laugh. Happiness followed him wherever he went. He was my bus driver for years and we worked wing night together as well. We walked in the winter carnival this year; him with Bailey and myself with my dog Lily.
I am devestated by this loss, and I send my prayers to his family.

Our sincere condolences to Karen and her family on Wayne's sudden passing.
Our children were deeply saddened by the news as he was their bus driver for a number of years and we all enjoyed working with Wayne at the Legion on Wing Nights. He was a great guy and will missed by all.

Wow, just devastated! Our heartfelt condolences to Karen, Wade and Devin. Wayne was a good man. We enjoyed playing darts, pool and horseshoes with him at the Legion. Wayne shot a perfect score in our Monday Night dart league last year a solid "180". He partnered up with Steve Kirkey last Tuesday night for pool night and took first place. I will miss putting the kids on his bus 444 at St. Gregory School. After school his bus would get loaded and he would drive away and then stop, open the door and pretend to let them off again and I would say," They're yours now until you bring them back tomorrow. Always kidding around like that and it will be missed. Wayne's help on the legion wing nights and pizza nights will always be greatly appreciated. He will be missed dearly, always a fun guy to be around. R.I.P. Wayne Smith.
