My name is Merle Adams I knew Wayne when we were both in the Navy on the USS COLAHAN DD658. WE WERE ALWAYS GOOD FRIENDS. I last saw Wayne at our ships reunion in Las Vegas NV. He was a great guy, and friend, Our country needs more people just like him.

Wayne lived with us when I was a young girl before he went into the Navy. I think I will always remember and cherish his laugh. No one else laughed like him. I can't wait to see him again. Laura Hughes Abel
