Recommended Posts

Oh no.... Sad news.

Wayne the incredible sewing machine teacher.

Lots of thoughts for your family and your extended family which would include almost any riglet who went through USAPR.

Tried to send you a Private Message but you've blocked PM's :(?

Wayne shot himself with a shot gun. He was having medical issues.
There is a memorial service for him in Eloy Oct. 15th, it's posted on Facebook.
"Celebration of Life for Wayne Snyder".

I Jumped with the guys who invented Skydiving.

I will never forget his kicking the windsock while hook turning into the Coolidge hanger. Really impressive when he got it right (and yes he did miss on occasion). This was the late 70's and "Hang Load" on 33Z was the picture to have. Giles ran the DZ and Zing did his best to spot the C-54. Black Val, Slocum, Irv, Tom, Rick, Judy, and many other excellent people.
