Wade was born August 14, 1946 in Mecklenburg County, NC. After a long career as an optician, Wade decided to relocate where he could enjoy being outdoors, playing golf, hunting, going to the beach and being on the water. Wade and Marsha moved to Oak Island in 2002 and have been in the area enjoying themselves ever since. Wade was a jack of all trades and could do anything. He was very generous with his time and enjoyed helping others. Wade recently retired and move to his dream house on the river.
Wade was preceded in death by his father, Richard Ferrell and a daughter, Lisa Ferrell. He is survived by his wife, Marsha, his mother, Lucille; and his sisters, Merle Myers and husband Mark, Renee Hedrick and husband Bob, and his Brother-in-law and Sister-in-law Nathan & Martha Gilbert.
Wade enjoyed surrounding himself with his four-legged family, his BIG dog Cooper, and kitties
Hobie and Tali.
