Very saddened to hear of Wayne's passing. He was always know to us as Rat. He always greeted me with a smile and a hug when we met at the numerous darting events over the years. RIP Rat and sincere condolences to your family. xx

I was in the bed next to Wayne for 2 days prior to his operation at Waikato. In that short time he made a huge impression and I was looking forward to forming a friendship when we're both back in the Naki. Our hearts go out to you Jane. We are just up the road on here for support.
