Thanks for remembering, Milan.  Because of the birthdays listed here and in the booklet, I heard from three good friends yesterday.  It was great to get those messages.

It's been a pleasure working with the Class of 1962 and I will gladly continue to help where I can. If anyone has any ideas of what they would like to see on this site, let me know. I'll do what I can.

Visitation will be from 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday at the Calvert & Metzler Memorial Home, Bloomington, and from 9:30 to 10 a.m. Friday at the church.

He was preceded in death by his parents, three sisters, one brother, one half brother and one great-grandson.

Wayne was retired from Laborers’ Local 362. He was an avid Bible reader and citizens band radio enthusiast known as “shovel man.” He called his grandchildren and great-grandchildren his “monkies,” and they call him “monkey head.”

He was a member of the First Christian Church, Bloomington, and the Great Banquet with the Walk of Emmaus. He was a member of the Promise Keepers and McLean County Democratic Party. Wayne served as an election judge for many years.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to his hospice nurse, Jason; aide, Tracy; and friend, Dennis. Wayne was a loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and brother. He will be missed by all who knew him.

I was just wondering if any of you remember the Polar Lounge.  Also that fire that you have pictures of, I remember thank you. I watched the fire from across the street. I saw my Father, who worked for the fire dept, go into the building ........... so yes indeed it brought back memories............... I was very proud of my father that day.

Merry Christmas all and hope you all have a wonderful next year.

God Bless you all.
