To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome...

We loved Wade and will miss him greatly. Him and Shirley became a part of our family. We take such comfort in that he is in heaven and happier then ever. We WILL see him again. Heaven is so lucky to have him. AD, Andrew and myself are praying for Shirley and her family.

He will be greatly missed. Lots of fond memories of him at A&W and it is a sad day in Huntsville. He's left behind a legacy of memories for most of us who remember the Drake A&W. RIP Wade.

I am so sad to read this. Wade has been on my mind so much recently and I thought of calling many times - oh how I wish I had done it. The values of being a good employee were instilled into me by this man. I cherish the memories I have from working at A&W Restaurant. Please know your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. I'm out of town and will not be able to attend the services but will be thinking of you.
