Burpee, Carpenter & Hutchins Funeral Home

Forever my Brother.

Victor and you rejoiced in the moment that my little chunk y butt walked off the ferry, for a summertime baptism in the Fountain.

But it wasn't a bully thing.

It was a welcoming; laughter and strength, truth and engagement.

You have always been a dear friend. My best laughs have you front and center or in the wings. I am sad you are gone. And you were a badass till the end.

Love you Wayne.

Will always do my best for Mel if she needs me. Promise.

You were always a fixture in the neighborhood when we were growing up. You were always one to have fun, be funny, and speak what you thought. So many stories and good times we had together as kids growing up on an island. The time you were in a cast and we used to run race cars on your track.. I really didn't mind picking up the ones that flew off at 900 mph into the wall and placing them back on. The time you were driving the blue truck up the road and I was coming down.. we both turned our blinkers on, maintained speed, and passed each other on the wrong side of the road (up by Joel Wooster's). Dialing for "Dollars".. Playing and singing along to "Winchester Cathedral". We had fun.

You kept the spirit alive with more friends you met along the way. You will be (are) missed not only by me but those as well. Melanie was a great companion to you through life and you were very lucky to share your lives together.

See you again someday, old friend.
