Wayne and I met in the fifth grade when we moved to Gary to live. He was smart and very kind and helpful to everyone. I didn't and still don't like my first name and he used to mispronounce it purposely to tease me. He also was always willing to share a ride to the basketball games for my sister and me. He was a very good basketball player and a good person.
My wife Audrey and I first met Wayne about a year and a half ago when we moved to Longview. He was our neighbor and made it a point to welcome us within a day or two of moving in. Sometimes after taking our dog for an early morning walk, I'd see Wayne on his back patio reading the paper and go and drink coffee and visit. Audrey would occasionally take him some extra dessert or homemade tortillas and visit. We're going to miss you Wayne it was an honor to have known you and been your friends. Our Condolences to his Family..................Mark and Audrey Baxter
I worked with Mr. Harvey at Siemens in Heber Springs. I was a regular floor worker and Mr. Harvey was an engineer there...he treated all people the same ...with respect. Even though he was my superior he never treated me that way. I consider it an honor to have known him and I wish there were more Wayne Harveys in this world. Condolences to his family.
I first met Wayne in the 8 th grade and one of my first impressions of him was how witty and intelligent he was as well as a great basketball player a little later in high school .When we started Algebra we needed slide rules and of course Wayne was a wizard with it. Well I just couldn’t get the hang of it so I asked him if he wanted mine and he said yes . I often teased him later that when he became an engineer for General Electric he used my slide rule to succeed and I wanted a finders fee! Also he was a very warm and fun guy to be around and I always looked forward to seeing him again at our class reunions … I am going to miss him….Jack Payne
Growing up he was like a brother instead of a cousin. I was several years younger. In the small church we grew up in I would set with him. I slept in his arms lots of Sunday. He loved Lemon Ice box pies.
