    Hello, I am married to Cindy Soule, daughter of the late Thayer Soule of Rochester NY.

    Wyman played the bagpipes at our wedding which we will always remember.
    Our thoughts are with you all.

    I remember Wyman’s love of the bagpipes and his amazing mustache! I also was grateful to him and his family for welcoming me into their home when I was a student at Emma Willard School in Troy (during the 70s) for meals and family time — a nice break from boarding school! I send my very best to Mindy and Thayer. My thoughts are with you.
