Brian and family,
I'm so very sorry for your loss.
No words can take away your pain but it will fade with time.
I could tell when I would talk to your daddy on the phone just how much he loved you and his grandsons.
My husband Ronald would always tell me that Wade your Uncle Wendell and Floyd Wallace were more like brothers to him then friends.
If Ronald were here today he would be heart broken just like he was with the passing of your Grandmother Thomas and your Uncle Wendell.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Love,

Deanna Alford

Brian,
I was so sorry to hear about the loss of your dad. I know you will miss him very much. He was very special to many people. I'll never forget how he bonded with Andy when Andy was a part time resident at your house. You were always number one and Andy was number two. My prayers are with you at this time. Love you, Jann

Brian, Linda, & Family,
Some people come into this world and fade away quietly. However, others enter this life and touch the hearts of everyone around them. They leave their mark upon everyone they have met during their lifetime. Wade was without a doubt one of the special people that his family and friends shall never forget as a kind, fun, and loving human being. We feel blessed to have been Wade’s friends. We shall always love and remember him. We, along with his family and friends, celebrate Wade Thomas’ life.

Love,

Vicki Farmer, Manges

Brian and Linda,
My heart is very sad that Wade has departed this earth but I rejoice he is reunited with loved ones and especially with Edith. My heart leaps with joy when I picture her waiting for her father's arrival on 8/2/11 in God's heaven after being separated for 39 years!!
My love and deepest sympathy,
Sylvia
