Our sympathy and prayers to Margaret, Bill and all the family. Jim met Wayne when they served on the Omaha Farm Credit Board. Such a kind man. We enjoyed the times when we got to see he and Margaret at the Master Farmer events and in chance meetings. He was a wonderful man. We were sad to see he had died.

Northey family,
We are very sorry for your family’s loss of Wayne. We enjoyed seeing both Wayne and Margaret at Wel-Life the past few months. Wayne was a great husband, father, steward of the land, and leader in the community. He was the epitome of “even-keel”, always patient and thoughtful. Spirit Lake is a better town because of Wayne’s contributions and giving spirit. He will be greatly missed. Bill, Nancy and their families are a reflection of the values instilled in them by Wayne and Margaret.

What a beautiful tribute to a wonderful and decent man’s legacy. The love he had for his family and communities is evident in the photos you chose of his full life. What a gift he gave to all who knew him - a true “builder of (wo)men”. May all of your wonderful memories help your hearts. Hugs to you all, Susan Clark

I'm so sorry for Wayne's loss. I have fond memories of visiting in the '80s and my brothers and I learning to waterski behind his boat. He was always such a gracious host. What a wonderful legacy he's left behind with his amazing family!

The community of Spirit Lake will be speaking highly of this incredible person who lived a life loving this community! Wayne Northey was a man of decency and conviction. More importantly, he was a family friend to so many. His actions portrayed a kindness that inspired others to try to lead the same lives. And anyone who knows the Northeys realize this kindness Wayne shared is also deeply instilled in his children and grandchildren, and his great-grandchildren will no doubt carry this on too. May we all take steps each day to continue this legacy of kindness that Wayne has shared with us all. Dear Margaret, Bill, and Nancy (my prayer sister)- our sympathies, our hugs, our love, our prayers are with you and your children and grandchildren!
