EDMONTON
- The family of Cpl Randy Payne would like to
express their sincere gratitude to the people of
CFB/ASU Wainwright and the surrounding community
who have taken the time to convey their
condolences, support and well wishes in the wake
of this terrible tragedy. Randy touched many
lives and was a loving husband, father, brother
and son. He will be sorely missed by both his
family and all those who had the honour of
knowing him over the years.
In respect to those who are suffering the most
during this time of great loss, it is requested
that Randy's family be allowed to mourn in
privacy.
In recognition of the sacrifice made by Cpl
Payne and his fellow Military Policeman, Matthew
Dinning, in the service of peace, there will be
a public memorial service held at the Base on
Wednesday, May 3, 2006 at 11:00 a.m. in the
Tommy Prince Drill Hall. All are welcome to
attend.
In lieu of flowers, the family has indicated
that donations can be made to an educational
trust fund for Cpl Payne's children, Tristan and
Jasmine. These trust funds have been established
at the Toronto Dominion Bank in Gananoque,
Ontario, account 6256255.
