My name is Kim (Mitchell)Luxeder and when I saw Mr. Whitehouse's obituary in the paper,I had to share my story with his family. I never knew this man, but I know the kind of man he was. I grew up in Livermore Falls, but moved away after college. We always visit back home and one night, my husband, my two young kids and myself decided to eat at the Chuck Wagon in town. There was a man at a table next to us, smiling and glancing over and saying how well-behaved our kids were. We smiled and thanked him and continued eating our dinner. When we finished, we asked the waitress for our bill. She replied, its already been taken care of.We said what? By who? She said the older gentleman sitting next to you. I asked the waitress for his name, in case I ever got the oppurtunity to thank him. She told me Wayne Whitehouse. I wrote it down and put it in my wallet. Living out-of-state,I never got to thank him,but I never forgot his random act of kindness and thought his family should hear it too! He touched our family and when,on another occasion we got the chance, we payed it forward and picked up the tab for someone else.

Wayne - You got to work many years at the mill with my father Lewis Yeaton. You were a great friend of dads and I was fortunate to have gotten to know you while I was working summers at the mill (you always picked on me when I was younger, but I loved it!) and whenever you stopped by to visit mom and dad. I can still recall dad talking about the bats, mice and snakes at the camp on Lincoln Pond. Dad didn't like the bats hanging over him while he slept, so he had you put up a bat house and got rid of them! You told him not to worry about the mice because the snakes would take care of them and then dad saw one slither in the wood pile - he didn't like those either!! He had lots of awesome trips with you to Ross Lake and Lincoln Pond and many great "fishing" stories. Thanks for all of the great memories!You will be missed by many especially my dad.
Rest in Peace.

Wayne,
I was so blessed to have you in my life. I can't imagine my childhood memories without you in them. You always had some sort of treat for me and my sisters every time we visited. Our favorite was always the Slim Jims! I also treasure the times we laughed so hard watching "Big Mouth Billy Bass" and all the other singing wall hangings you always seemed to find, then laughing when we got home and Mom sarcastically thanked you for letting us keep Billy and his annoying songs. I wish we would have kept in touch as I grew older because I've started fishing a lot and I know I could have learned lots of tricks from you! Love you Wayne!

Dad,
it has only been a few days since you passed
I miss you more every hour,mostly lost at home without you.I know it will take time
everything i look at is a reminder, of how fortunate i was to be able to take care.
we had good times,difficult, times sad times,
overall we made the best of everything.
you never complained of the pain you were in, i have been thinking it must have been terrible but you never complained. even though you could not even turn over you still would getup and go to dinner.
I really have some great memories that will be in my heart forever.
we drove 2700 miles in my new car, how much fun was that. I look back how you asked me to buy the car while you still were here so you could see it.I tried to complete your bucket list, there were a couple of things we could not do ,due to illness,however i will make sure you go to these destanations.
so glad i could be by your side to the very last breath.
your daughter,
Debra

Wayne, you were my everything. I will forever cherish our love and life together with our lovely daughter and two precious sons. You worked hard and played hard. Lived life your way. Thank you Spike for taking your Dad in and doing the best you knew how when he needed you even when you were not well yourself. And Wendell, you did great in the time your Dad was with you and understandably you had to go to work. He loved his time with you. Debbie your extrodinary care and sacrifices you have made to care for your Dad was way beyond imagination. You worked 12 hr. shifts then took him out to eat or icecream or wherever he wished and the care during his struggles with his declining health. Wayne you were so blessed and loved by these children of yours.

To my dearest friend, Debra. I am so very sorry for your loss but in the deepest part of your heart, the memories will live forever. So this is my wish for; COMFORT on difficult days RAINBOWS to follow the clouds;
SMILES when sadness intrudes; FAITH, so that you can believe; Sunsets to warm your heart;LAUGHTER to kiss you lips;COURAGE to know yourself;Hugs,when spirits sag; Patience to accept the truth;BEAUTY for your eyes to see;Confidence for when you doubt;FRIENDSHIPS to brighten your being...and LOVE, to complete your life. It makes my heart very happy that we've located each other again...and for Poppa,May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be always at your back;may the sun shine warm upon your face;the rain fall soft upon your fields and Until we meet again, May God hold you in the the hollows of His Hand. Have a safe journey, Popa
