Wayne worked for the City of Fredericton in the property management department for 25 years, a carpenter by trade he was a jack of all trades and loved the challenges that brought.

A vacation for Wayne was getting out in the woods for hunting or enjoying nature and falling trees for his winters wood.  Another passion of Wayne’s was his vegetable garden, with the planting and tending it as it produced for his and other families.

As Dad, he was always there helping his daughter Heidi with his many skills.   Wayne also enjoyed being a mentor to grandson Trey who he trained in his handyman skills.
