When Melissa White was growing up, her mother, referring to the realities of choosing a husband, always told her daughter, âWhen you tie your cart to a pony, thatâs your pony. You go where he goes.â In a recent interview with her husband, Wayne, Melissa said, âI hitched mine, and whoa, Iâve been all over the world. âIâve even been draped in black in Saudi Arabia.â If you donât know Wayne White, donât beat yourself up. He hasnât âbeen hereâ most of his life, but when he is in town, he keeps a pretty low profile ⦠but what a profile his life created.
