-----------------------------------------

Wayne's obituary from the funeral home listed his survivors to include "a special friend, Juanita..." If this is the same as his wife, Juanita Wagner, then this language from the obituary makes it sound as if they were never married yet there is the record of their marriage from 1951 in Muscatine County. One other possibility is that they were divorced at some time but reconciled without being remarried.
