Living Memorial For NSGEU Brother & Friend, Wayne Butler
Our colleague and friend, Wayne Butler, has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. With Wayne’s blessing, the NSGEU is hosting a living memorial for him on Sunday, March 8th, from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the NSGEU office (255 John Savage Avenue, Burnside).
Any NSGEU members who have had the pleasure of working with Wayne in the past, either through his work with his past employer (the Museum of Industry in Stellarton) or during his time with us here at the NSGEU, are invited to attend the memorial so they can say goodbye to him as his journey with us comes to an end and he leaves our world to a better place.
If you are unable to attend, please take a moment to leave a message to Wayne and his family in the comments below!
We hope to see you Sunday.
