[Nfbf-l] Wayne Davis

[Jim Ellsworth]

Very well put Dan.  I have many wonderful memories of Wayne.  He was a good
friend and we spent many hours just talking about just about anything.  Rest
in peace Wayne.

Subject: [Nfbf-l] Wayne Davis

Losing a longtime member of our NFBF family is always a shock. I knew that
Wayne Davis was very ill, but that thought does nothing to diminish the loss
to all of us who knew and worked with Wayne as a friend, colleague, and
partner in hilarity. Wayne served as state president for many years, through
good times and not so good times. There were occasions when Wayne and his
streak of stubborn determination were the strongest things keeping this
affiliate together and moving it forward. I hope Wayne knew how much he was
appreciated and how much he and his hardworking spirit and infectious laugh
will be missed. He was my friend, and a friend to many of us. Our thoughts,
prayers, and warm wishes go out to Carmen and David Davis. R.I.P. Wayne.
