It’s ten years now. Not a memory faded or lost. You’re as present today amongst your family as you were 11 years ago. Your voice eco’s in my thoughts. Your words are heard by your grandson who’s never touched your face. We love you daddy. You will always lead this family. I love you.
Your Son,

Its almost nine years now. Hes the first thing I think about when I wake. The last thought before I sleep is of my Daddy. Ive been working hard to make him proud. Even in his absence I feel his presence. I talk to him every day. I do not miss him anymore. He lives in my son. His grandson who unfortunately he never met or held. My son is named after him. Marshall Wade Conner II. Wade Conner is alive and well in our home and always will be. His voice is heard. His love is felt. I am the son of Marshall Wade Conner. I will remind my children of his love for them daily. I will pass on to them the knowledge he gave me. His legacy lives in all of us. 5610

No words can ever express how much I will miss Wade. It appears to get harder everyday instead of eaiser. Every day holds a new memory that bring a tear to my eyes. He Left a huge hole in the hearts of us all. I will miss him. His passing reminds me that life is short and to cherish every day. Don't put off seeing some one you love till tommorow. The next day is not promised to us. Wade give Dad & Brigette a hug for me. I love you Carolyn Conner Caldwell
