So sorry for the families loss. Wayne was one of Altus's real treasures with a sweet lady by his side. Brought humor to many on his swap shop days. He will be truly missed. Rest in peace!

My deepest sorrow to all of the Croft family. Wayne and my father, like many others, were fun friends and all of us laughed when we heard the stories from either of them. Wayne, you were a wonderful and fun asset to all of our lives and thank you for all the memories and laughs you gave us. The Geigle and Easterling families.
