After retiring from the State of Illinois Department of Transportation, Wayne devoted his time to his family, friends and traveling. He was passionate about trains, eagles, music, time with his grandkids and could often be found at the Nest when he wasn’t at home.

Wayne was a force of nature, determined to provide for his family and give them the life he felt they deserved. His family meant more to him than anything else in the world, something he often mentioned. He was extremely proud of all his children, grandchildren and his wife and always tried his best to support them.
