Dear Watson Family,
I'm very sorry to hear of Wade's passing. I was a neighbor in Sunset Village over 35 years ago. Wade was always so good to me and all the neighborhood kids for that matter. He would let me sit on his motorcycle and rev up the engine, I remember what a big thrill that was for me as a young boy. I will have your entire family in my thoughts and prayers! My deepest condolences!!
