You are soaring in heaven now my friend. I am confident your impact in heaven will be as great (greater) as it was here on earth.
Sending my deepest condolences to the Reed family. I worked as a Senior Contracts Manager and reported to Wayne (VP of Contracts). He was a man of high integrity and professionalism. The entire contracts team respected him and valued his input and insight. He was a calming spirit and made everyone feel valued and recognized. Many of us are grieving with the Reed family. The contracts community will feel his void. We lost a great one.
Wayne was the best shipmate and I loved him for that. We always had each other’s back at work and when blowing off steam. I was lucky to have shared some years with him both in and out of the Navy.
