Hi Wayne..Some days I think I'm good and found my place in my heart where I'm ok knowing you're always with me.. then other days I just can't stand the thought of not having you here. The house isnt the same without you. I bought this house for us. I know you enjoyed it.. but it was supposed to be for a long time. It's all good though because I've got a great place for your baby girl.. Your life.. the reason you pushed and pushed through it all. You were the best single father I've ever known. I only hope I can fill your shoes. Love you and I miss you! So does Michi, Prada, Louis and Jimmy!!

Hello My sweet brother.. I'm going through the motions trying to find the feeling of happiness for these holidays.. Matt is doing so well at doing the Wayne things around here for Jean and I.. as much as I'm proud of him for that it doesn't take away the sadness that it's not you.. today he's going to bring all of our Christmas decorations up. Tomorrow Meredith will come do the tree for us again with me as her assistant .. As I think about that it brings up so many thoughts of how you were always there every step of the way for me. You barely needed me to say what was needed you were just my team mate in getting it done never allowing me to stress about getting things taken out of storage, or getting it back and organized when the holidays were over. But mostly our bonding time and fun of getting our home ready for the season.

Then there's my Birthday.. the memory of how you loved to surprise me by doing a surprise dinner party where you did everything, shopped, invites, cooking, decorations.. You have no idea how happy that made me knowing you did that. I miss you so much every minute of every day. Miss you making me laugh..even miss you making me mad sometimes. Just miss you and love you so much.

I love you! Holidays are here. I could tell so many holiday stories. I just miss you so much Wayne. I'm sure the stories will come later. <3 Love Con

A long time family friend of Wayne's is friends with Derek St. Holmes of TheTed Nugent Band. She told Derek Wayne's story when he was performing in Tennessee and how Wayne would change the words of  "Cat Scratch Fever" to "Back Scratch Fever" whenever he scratched his Nana Weed's (Jean's Mom) back. Nana Weed always sang Wayne's version of the song when she was in need of a good back scratching!!  
In honor of Wayne, the band performed the song and Derek wrote an autograph to Wayne personally!!  Thank You Wayne for giving us this sweet and loving memory... and allowing us to see the true and gentle Rocker that you really are!!  We love you and miss you and in the words of Derek St.Holmes... Rock on forever!

Oh jeeze Wayner, where to start with you?! we've had alot of memories. I'm so glad that my mom had a friend like you. I remember the first day I met you and me and my mom thought you were weird (because she didn't recognize it was you at first) and you were sitting infront of our house waiting for us to get home, and you asked if we needed help with our bags and we looked at each other weirded out and said no. LOL then my mom realized it was you.. that night we all had fun playing different games, & you kept annoying the crap out of me so I locked myself in my room and you came knocking on my door saying 'can I come in?' in a sad voice, lol. but back then I didn't fully understand your personality. but I sure can say you have the best one around. You ALWAYS annoyed me but you did it because you knew you could get under my skin and it made you laugh! my mom would always say "Wayne you're pissing her off!" and you'd proudly say, "I know!" haha, though I never took anything you did to heart. You have the biggest heart of gold.. I wish the last time I seen you I would of known that'd be the last time.. we had such a good time having parties at my house! It's so upsetting you're gone... I can't even believe it still.. You better know how loved you are now mister Wayne Mong Sir! Forever in my heart..... rest peacefully buddy!

Wayne loved his morning coffee.. he would heat up yesterday's coffee to get the energy to make his fresh pot for today! He then would head out back to drink it. He so loved the summer when his flowers would be out to enjoy only to  later hide from the sun! This picture was his.. I'm so happy he lived here and felt peace. <3

Oh Wayne were to start!! All of my childhood memories have you right there in the middle of them!! There has not been a family event that you didnt show up to no matter how big or small!! I will never forget you for that!! Always making us laugh out loud!! If I was at a event I could tell if Wayne was there cause you would hear him scream over the crowd HEY CUZ!! Thank you Wayne for some pretty great memories!!! You will be missed CUZ!!! <3 

Well except to come home and dye Easter eggs with his baby girl! I remember him telling us the guys teased the heck out of him.."What?, you're leaving to go dye eggs?"... Of course that didn't phase Wayne at all. Not when it came to his daughter. Notice the wonderful AWG shirt full of paint ..he hurried home so fast he didn't even bother to get changed. <3
