Merlin Wayne Loosli

On October 28, 2014 my Uncle Wayne passed away.  He will be greatly missed.  

It has been nice to think on some of the memories I have of my Uncle Wayne and how I remember him.  He was always an outdoors man.  He had a cabin up in Island Park that he loved.  He would spend his time fishing and out amongst nature.  

If there is one thing I will remember about him though is that he was a tease!  Ever since I could remember he had been teasing me.  And most of the time - I must admit - I didn't even know it!  He always had a dry humor that just seemed to be over my head!  

I have a picture that completely shows my Uncle Wayne's teasing of me!  We were visiting them up at their cabin in Island Park and he had a moose on the wall that just terrified me.  We had made some popcorn and I wouldn't sit on the side of the room where the moose was.  So he told me that if I fed some popcorn to the moose that he wouldn't hurt me.  So I picked up the popcorn bowl and "fed" some to the moose.  What a tease!

I love my Uncle Wayne and he will be missed within the family.  My thoughts and prayers are with my Aunt Lucy and her family at this time.  I am so grateful for my testimony of eternal families and look forward to an eternity of teasing from my Uncle Wayne.
