Walter Taylor wrote a sympathy message

“To Wayne's Family: Please accept my condolences. I was greatly saddened by the news of his death, as were countless others. We served together during his years in Columbus. Wayne was, I hardly need to mention, a brilliant theologian. He was also (for some strange reason!) very supportive of me, and I sought his counsel more than once. Please know that you are and will be in my prayers of intercession. Walter F. Taylor, Jr., Professor Emeritus of New Testament, Trinity Lutheran Seminary”
