Wayne was my childhood friend and neighbour. Wayne and my sister and brother and other neighbour kids had lots of adventures and laughs when we were kids on Eaton Ave in Selkirk. We played anti anti I over, war, Simon Says, True Dare Double Dare, among other games. We played hockey on the street, went trick or treating, climbed trees, and toboganning in the winter. I will always have fond memories of that time spent with him. It was hard to hear about his struggles later in life. RIP Wayne! - Posted by: Kelli Adams Wityk (Childhood friend and neighbour.) on: May 27, 2017
