Wayne was such a kind, funny, thoughtful and reliable person to work with. I was so sorry to hear of his passing. Sending love to his family.

I had the pleasure of working with Wayne for many years - a kind, supportive and dedicated friend and colleague. I was so sad to hear of his untimely passing. Sending love to his family.

My sincere condolences to Sharon and all of Wayne’s family. He was such a genuine and kind person gone too soon.

It was desperately sad to hear about Wayne. A real shock. My condolences to the family and all who knew him. One of life's good guys, Wayne, that's for sure. I hope the outpouring of love and affection here, provides some comfort. To leave such an impression with so many people, is the measure of the man. May he rest in peace.

Dear Sharon and Zoe. Our thoughts are with you at this sad time. Lots of love Rich, Mel, Joe and Rosie.

I am so sorry to learn that Wayne is no longer with us. I had the pleasure of working with him as part of the Medway Business Awards. A totally decent, genuine person with a great sense of humour who will be missed by many. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Dear Emma, Laura and Sharon, I am so sorry to hear your news. I hold many happy memories of time spent with your Dad when we were teenagers, always making us laugh and singing along with his own version of the words to the songs we loved to play. I am thinking of you at this time.

I will think of you often Wayne and be grateful that I knew you. Thank you for the support, love and kindness you gave to our family over the years. Your love of and passion for music was legendary and I will miss having a coffee with you. I can’t believe you have gone… Much love, Nathan

We are so sorry to hear the passing of Wayne. From when we became his neighbours in Feb 2021 Wayne was nothing but kind, genuine and welcoming. We would spend hours talking about the area, the wildlife, Family and work. He helped us put our Christmas decorations up by holding the foot of the ladder. We would sweep and cut the front hedges together and worked together to clean the road of snow. The family will miss him and continue to remember the great man he was.

Wayne was one of the most kind, thoughtful and generous men that I’ve ever met. He loved his family more than anything in the world and he would do anything to help friends and colleagues. I am so sad that he’s no longer with us and send all my love and best wishes to his family at this very difficult time.

I’m so deeply saddened to hear the news about Wayne, he was a mentor, a teacher and a friend, who taught me not only how to act in the workplace, but also how to act as a young man going through life, the knowledge and guidance he shared with myself, and everyone he worked with will be a lasting legacy that spreads across lifetimes.

In loving memory of my Husband Wayne, my soul mate. I still can't believe you're gone, there is a huge hole in my life, that will never be filled, part of me has gone with you. I will always love you.

Sorry for your loss x

Such a genuine, charismatic man, with family at the centre of his world. Wayne was one of a kind, an honorable and charming man with a twinkle in his eye - a great boss, and friend to all. Condolences to the family, such a tragedy, gone far too soon xx

Wayne, our very dear friend and neighbour. Greensands won’t be the same without you. We’ll miss seeing you out on your daily dog walks, will cherish the memories of our girls growing up together, and wish you were still on hand to help dig us out of the snow.

Sharon and Zoe, we’ll always be there to support you with whatever you need. We as a family are so sorry for your loss xxx

Sorry to hear the sad news Sharon and girls, that Wayne has passed away. May the love and memories you shared help you through this sad time, as nothing can take those away. I remember Wayne from our Chamber and Medway Council days ad being a fun loving, caring, thoughtful and considerate man.

One life lived, many lives touched. Remembering Wayne with fondness.

So sorry to hear about Wayne, such a lovely man and a fabulous officer in the Economic Development Team, who loved his job.
