Wayne and Linda carry their lives beyond the ranch.

Wayne competes year-round in Masters Track & Field and Senior Games, favoring the long jump and decathlon in the M70–74 age group. He also collects baseball cards and comic books and serves as a small-group leader for both the Kids Ministry and Youth Group at Hill Country Bible Church. Linda enjoys reading, runs nearly every day, and is an active member of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Together, they stay active through CrossFit, enjoy cooking meals, attend church, participate in the Hiking Club and Computer Club, and love traveling to California to visit their adult children, Megan and Matt.

At the ranch, their favorite moments are walking the big dogs — especially bonded pairs like Bandit and Texas, Nick and Noel, Valentine and Love, and Remi and Luna (affectionately nicknamed the Lunatics). Getting Luna into her harness often turns into a full-on rodeo and could easily qualify for America’s Funniest Videos.

💖Wayne and Linda remind us that steady presence doesn’t end when the walk is over — it shows up everywhere life is lived.
