Wayne McKenna

It is with great regret we announce the passing of a good friend and client of Ve’ahavta: Wayne McKenna.

Wayne will be remembered fondly especially by Ve’ahavta’s outreach workers Lauren Gostick and Eric Cisterna, who proved to be strong support systems for Wayne during his illness and last days of his life.
