Wade spent many years in Fort St. John, where he built a life filled with hard work, and friendship. He was a devoted father to Brad (Marie) and Tim. A proud brother to Gary (Christine), Eddy (Sherri), and Nicole (Morris). Grandchildren are Morgan, Keira, Gage and Cale.
For much of his career, Wade worked in telecommunications with BC Tel, where he was known for his reliability, organization, and easygoing nature. A true jack of all trades, Wade could fix or build anything, always lending a hand to friends in need and always with respect to his neighbours.
Wade will be remembered for his kindness, and his quiet and gentle strength. His wisdom, and warmth will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
A private gathering for family and friends will be held at a later date to celebrate his life.
