Our condolences go out to the entire Blackburn family. I was just about to email Wayne about a trailer at one of the parks he sold at. It was quite the shock when I opened up the website to do this. This is how our family met Wayne. He took the time to get to know us, as prospective buyers, and was very patient with us as we visited him in his sales office three times over the last year. He was wonderful to our two boys, that we always had in tow for the meetings, and I really appreciated that.

My sincere condolences to the family. The marine industry lost a great friend when Wayne retired recently and his passing only makes the void even deeper. For me Wayne's baritone voice, the great conversations, his genuine compassion and laughter were shining moments at countless boat shows and dealer meetings. He will be missed. RIP friend
