    Tragic news ...sigh. He will be sorely missed. I loved how he found his own narrative of presenting chess and of course his dedication.

    My deepest condolences to his family.

    Rest in peace Wayne.

    Absolutely devastating news. I had become used to Wayne being a fixture here with his wonderful curated news items and always timely information. I am glad that he was able to do what he clearly loved doing until the end ... Rest in peace.

    This is a shock. Wayne did the chess news on this site almost daily for several years and it seems like the end of an era. He was posting news until the last day and was doing what he loved amongst, I'm sure, his chess books and probably a set or two for analysis (or to set up favorite positions). My condolences to close friends and family. Rest in peace Wayne.
