Wayne owned and operated Daniel Motor Company, a wrecker service and salvage yard for many years with the help of his chosen devoted son, Roger Allen. He also loved spending time at his beautiful farm in Beauregard tending to cows, building lakes and fishing, riding on the tractor and enjoying working in the garden. He enjoyed target practice, skeet shooting and calling up wild turkeys.
Wayne was a deacon at Northside Baptist Church during his early to mid-adult life where he influenced many “Northside kids” who are grown adults now. He loved his church family and was very faithful in attendance. He loved playing Rook with his friends and enjoyed all kinds of board games and dominoes. Wayne just loved being around people and inviting them into “Wayne’s World”
Most recently, Wayne kept the staff at Azalea Place and Camelia Place on their toes and told all of the caregivers they were his favorite.
