Jo Ann and family-

Our deepest sympathies to the Gardner family. Your Dad was a such a cheerful guy. He always had a smile on his face and a story to tell. we will miss seeing him about town.

Dear Gardner cousins,

Dear cousins,

My sympathies to the family as they mourn Wayne's death. I worked at least one election with Wayne and Goldie at City High. They will be sorely missed.

Sympathies to the Family of Wayne Gardner ~~

We have enjoyed the casual and occasional visits with Wayne during his trips to Stoughton and Brother Franks home. Wayne has been a delight for the community, friends and family and will be remembered with fond memories.

From the staff of 7 West at VA Medical Center. Our thoughts are with you. We feel privileged to have cared for Mr. Gardner, and to know his wonderful, loving family.

The first time I met Wayne was when his son, Art, and I had begun dating in June of 1984. We went to the Shrine Circus, where Wayne was dressed in his usual clown garb. This is the way I will always remember him. He was so devoted to his family and his Shriners. Wayne and Goldie, along with the entire Gardner family, were both so very kind to me, Abby and Alex even after Art and I were no longer together. I pray for all of Wayne's children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. May you find peace in knowing that Wayne lived a very good and properous life and is now at eternal rest with God and his beloved Goldie.

To the family of Wayne Gardner,

Wayne and Goldie were some of our nicest neighbors when we lived on First Ave. We loved running in to him at every parade we attended. He was so great with kids! We will miss him. May God bless your family at this time and may the many warm memories you have carry you through the tough days ahead. He has to be the BEST clown in Heaven:)!

Offering my condolences to the Gardner family for their loss.My thoughts and prayers to all of you..
