Wayne and Barb were married for 42 years and enjoyed life’s adventures together. Wayne was a devoted father to Erin and Tyson. He took pride in being part of all their teams and celebrations as children and adults. Papa taught his grandchildren all that he loved about sports, cycling, swimming and skiing with wild enthusiasm. He never missed an opportunity to go see his grandchildren at their individual sports and his eyes lit up with love whenever they were around. No one ever left Papa’s house without a kiss, a hug and an ‘I Love You’. In 1974 Wayne began a dedicated teaching career at Galt Collegiate Institute as well as Eastwood Collegiate (1993-1998) and Cameron Heights (1998-2000 as a VP).
