  1. Dear Family,
    With great pride, over the years, Wayne spoke highly of his dad’s words of wisdom and his enjoyment of life. His gentle soul touched many hearts. While he will be missed by so many here on earth, I am sure he was welcomed with open arms in heaven.

    With my heartfelt condolences and love,
    Kelly

  15. TO THE FAMILY,
    YOU DO NOT NO ME BUT AS A YOUNG MAN I WORKED WITH HOYT WHEN I WAS CO-OPING AT ENKA AND GOING TO WCU. A GREAT MENTOR AND FRIEND WHILE WORKING THERE. I REMEMBER MANY DEER STORIES TOLD AS HE AND JIM WESTALL WOULD GO HUNTING ALOT TOGETHER. FROM READING THE OTHER THOUGHTS OF MANY HOYT DIDNT CHANGE. HE WAS A GREAT MAN.
