TO MY PRECIOUS WIFE:
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU. Page 3
A story of love, happiness, tragedy, and death.

THE BEGINNING FOR WAYLAND MAYO:
I was born in New Bern, North Carolina, in 1929. My family owned the Maola Ice Cream business in New Bern and Washington, N.C. They also owned the Coca – Cola Bottling Co. in Washington, both very lucrative businesses. My Grandfather started both companies which were recognized throughout the state. My Father ran the Ice Cream Company in New Bern. When he mismanaged the company, my Grandfather sold both companies. When he died my Father inherited the Coca-Cola Co, and proceeded to mismanage it also. He was sick, under Doctor’s care, and was incapable of making proper decisions. He sold the Coca-Cola Co. Two outstanding Companies just given away. This complete story would be unacceptably long, I hate to not tell the whole story. My Grandfather left me valuable stocks, and part of the Coca-Cola franchise. I could have been set for the rest of my life. I sold it all and blew the money, a dumb mistake I am still paying for. Actually it was an act of ignorance that I never lived down.
