Russell and I shared a 60 plus year friendship. We went to primary school together, and later reconnected at Works and Engineering where we worked
together for over 25 years. I hadn't seen him that much since we both retired, periodically in the taxi.
Russell was a good guy and I send
my most sincere condolences to Jean Marie, Jason, Marcus and family on your loss. May you be comforted by the outpouring of loving support in the days and weeks ahead.
Soar with the angels Russ!

Deepest condolences to the Wade family.

I was privileged to have an opportunity to work with Mr. Wade and many other gifted Engineers within the Ministry of Public Works (Works & Engineering) as student trainee. Mr. Wade and others set a standard of excellence, dedication and professionalism within the Ministry that was inspiring to me as a young person. His example along with other men in the Ministry at that time had a profound impact on me professionally and personally.
He and others during his tenure within the Ministry contributed much to infrastructure of this island.

Again, deepest condolences to Mr. Wade's family and friends.
