I'm sorry to hear this. I recall that their mom also passed away due to a stroke.

He was a very kind person. I was able to meet him a time or two. 

This is sad. He beat a brain tumor a number of years ago.

I think that Jimmy had a stroke some yrs ago.

I just saw this too.  

Here's what Donny posted - 

"My dear brother Wayne passed away peacefully last night from a stroke. I'm so grateful that I had the opportunity to visit him in the hospital before he passed.

Wayne brought so much light, laughter, and love to everyone who knew him, especially me. He was the ultimate optimist and was loved by everyone.

I'm sure I speak on behalf of every one of us siblings when I state that we were fortunate to have Wayne as a brother.

Even though we are separated in this mortal life, I know that by the grace and resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ, we will have the opportunity to be with Wayne for eternity.

I love you, Wayne."

Your brother forever,

Donny

Wayne was such a kind loving man.  Rest in harmony.

 

It seems that strokes run in his family.  He had a stroke a couple of years ago that left him disabled.  His mother died from a stroke.  His older brother Tom had a heart attack and stroke.  His brother Jimmy has had 2 strokes.  Diabetes and MS runs in the family as well.
