Aggressive guy, but always with the bottom line numbers in mind. Could have used a guy like him in DC today. I have nothing but respect for the guy. He loved business, he !oved being in business, he loved competing.

As an aside, his late wife Marti (native Florida girl, from the days before the state experienced a measure of prosperity) was every bit as shrewd as he was. They dated, she cut it off unless they got married, her reasoning— I know guys like Wayne...he’s successful and he’ll keep stringing me along, hoping I’m just content to date a successful guy...

Great couple. They will be missed. And Wayne is another example of someone who never finished college, but never stopped learning. From two garbage truck routes in Pompano. Read his autobiography about collecting garbage all day, coming home, showering, then putting on a suit to go collect from his commercial clients. The guy paid his dues.

A life well lived.
