Wayne was born May 6, 1948, at Elbowoods, North Dakota, to Sylvan and Otter Louise (Holding Eagle) Sage. He was raised in Twin Buttes, North Dakota, and then later in life made his home in Harvey, North Dakota. Wayne was a very kind hearted, humble individual, who always had a smile to brighten a day and loved to give hugs. While growing up you would find Wayne in the front pew of the church on Sundays ready to sing songs of revival along with his family and community.
Wayne loved to travel. In his life he was able to travel to many places including Sea World, San Diego, Ca, Disneyland, Anaheim, Ca., Yellowstone National Park, Mt, Gathering of Nations Pow wow, Albuquerque, NM., and most recently the Grand Canyon, AZ. During his visit to the pow wow, Wayne rode the Tram to the top of Sandia Peak, and got to look out over the city of Albuquerque, NM.
Wayne will be missed by the many folks whose lives he touched and heaven got one of its Angels back.
He is survived by four brothers, Joshua, Twin Buttes, Willis (Corrine), Mandaree, North Dakota, Roland, Halliday, North Dakota and Jay Holding Eagle, Fargo North Dakota; numerous nieces and nephews; and special friends in Harvey from the Habit Group Home.
Wayne was preceded in death by his parents; brothers, Matt and LeRoy; and sisters, Flora and Lydia.
