Wayne Bruyckere
Wayne will be deeply missed by his family and friends. He was known for his love of family and greatly enjoyed holidays and family meals together. He also loved socializing with family and friends and spending time at the Ranchman’s enjoying their Saturday afternoon jam session. On Sundays, he could regularly be found watching football and cheering on the Miami Dolphins. He was very thankful to have grown up on a farm near Milk River and to have a number of cherished life long friends that he enjoyed spending time with. He enjoyed trips to Sweetgrass, Montana, where he met his loving wife, Phyllis. He loved attending the Garber family reunions and having fun at Bonanza Days. Wayne took pride in his excellent accounting work. He had a long and fulfilling career as a Credit Manager with New Holland, that brought him to many dealerships and farms all over Western Canada, where he made many meaningful friendships.
