This is a Wayne family blog to carry on the legacy of Milton & June Wayne. Because of miles and oceans between our families, some of their grandchildren, great-grandchildren, grand nieces and nephews etc. barely remember them or never got a chance to meet.
Both Milton and June wrote short autobiographies. Dad wrote his back in the 1970’s on an old typewriter and never had much time to edit it. Mom, being more utilitarian, wrote a short 90-page missive on her computer around 2016. After their passing, I wistfully reread these pages and thought it might be fun to try to come up with a way to blend both of their voices along with the memories from all of us who have stories to share.
I welcome any additions, suggestions and posts from anyone who would like to add their perspective. The posts will not necessarily be in chronological order – more around themes. So if there is something you would like to share please let me know.
I refer to them as “Mom” and “Dad” but when I am using their own words I try to show who is speaking when they refer to themselves. Many of you knew them as Nanna and Poppa or Uncle Mit and Auntie June so the names will change accordingly. But in the end, we know who we are talking about – the two loving people we miss so much: June and Milton
