WAYNE
GORDON ARNOLD
September 11, 1947 - August 29, 2019
Wayne was born September 11, 1947 and
passed away from a broken heart on August
29, 2019. He had two great loves; his dear
wife Peggy, and music. They met when he
was still in his teens and it was love at
first sight. Together they were part of
the band called The V.I.P.s, then he
joined The Deverons and recorded a couple
of singles. He was an accomplished
musician who loved to sing until the end.
After the band life, they owned a few
businesses like "The Age of Aquarius"and
"Arnold Hallmark Cards". He also helped
Peggy, who was a successful real estate
agent, to renovate and upgrade houses.
They enjoyed spending time in the winter
in Las Vegas. They were inseparable and
devoted to each other until Peggy's
passing in November of 2014.
We take comfort in knowing that both Uncle
Wayne and Auntie Peggy are together again.
He leaves behind his brother Brian, as
well as nieces and nephews.
Their final resting place is at Chapel
Lawn Cemetery, 4000 Portage Avenue, in the
Lasting Tribute Chapel.
