Wade was born in Yakima, WA. As a boy, he also lived in Seattle, WA and Duvall, WA, graduating from Tolt High School in 1952. Wade began his 40 year career in the Title Insurance industry at Puget Sound Title in Seattle, moving to Longview, WA, Olympia, WA and Everett, forming lifelong friendships along the way. He was active at Trinity Episcopal Church and the Rotary Club of Everett, serving as president in 1991-92. Upon his retirement in 2000, he and Gail moved to Spokane.

He grew the best sweet peas I ever saw. I will miss him. I have known Wade since 1977 when he hired me at then Transamerica. My heart goes out to his family.

For the Boze Family,
I became acquainted with Wade while I was an employee at the Everett Golf & Country Club. All of us were fond of him because of his kind and thoughtful ways. We also, got many a laugh from his jokes. I was always thankful for the beautiful flowers he would bring from his garden. He was a blessing to me on many days when I needed a boost up in attitude. I'm sad for you all that he had to leave you so soon. May God Bless and Keep You.

My memories of Wade are full of smiles, laughter and a good hug. Such a knowledgeable friendly man with a great business sense, a combination that is rare in this world. As a Real Estate Broker, Wade & I met and became instant friends... golf, rotary & business mix. He was a strong but gentle man. My thoughts and prayers are with you, he was always so proud of his family.
