I always remember my uncle Wayne as a big strong man. He always smiled no matter what was going on in his life. I always knew that if i was in some sort of trouble i could always turn to Wayne, he would never shut the door in my face. The best memories i had is when we would drive around with my Dad and Wayne, i was just a young kid, we would be looking for old cars in backyards or something. And Wayne sure had a way with words, a guy would be asking so much money for a car and by the time Wayne was done with the guy he would leave with the keys and a case of beer. Every time we went out Wayne was so sociable he knew everyone, and when we would go to the Plantation they would be asking him "come on Gilly" you gonna sing one for us. You know what was the best about my uncle Wayne is he didnt care what anyone thought, he just lived the way he wanted Free Bird, now he is truly Free, and everytime i think of him i Smile.
I remember the times when we would go out to aunt sandy's house everyone in the family and we would have a pig roast party, everyone camping in there tents outside...LOL.. my dad and his sisters would get up there and start singing it was really nice.. I miss those times, I miss the times me an dmy dad would sit there and jsut talk about anything and if i was upset he would always have the answers for me I still talk to him but it's not the same cause u don't hear nothing back.. the kids and I listen to his tape every morning to hear his voice again.. One day I will see u again dad i know I will...I miss you sooooo...
when we were small our year trip in the summer was craystal beach we went there for many years. my dad used to sing all the time he was really good and enjoyed it . he got up and the stage there and started singing you are my sunshine thats was his song for hes girls . so anyways he was up there and he called me and my cousin up there to sing with him we were imbaressed. but not dad dad was a wonderful singer i remember we would have family gatherings and he would get up there and sing he heart away.
I remember i lived with my dad for a while and i made a room in hes basment. Me and my cousin painted it all it was green with yellow sponge it was wonderful dad loved it. LOL but he said i could do what i wanted that was a fun time we would all play fight. i remember when i brought some guy friends over dad chased them out of the house it was so funny.
dad was a big man with alot of power so people would look at him like my friends and say i,m not going to your house it was funny. dad would always get a laugh out of it

I remember when I was little, when my mom took us to go see my dad for a visit he would always have rolled penny's for my sister and I, and there would be aabout $ 10 each. We loved it we would all go cash it in at the bank at the courner and then spend it all at the store for candy..LOL those were good times, that i sometimes wish i can go back to.
