Dear Wade,
Thanks for all the good times and great memories. From hanging at the Petersburg lake lot and skiing, listening to Genisis, ELP etc. in your basement, spending summer vacations at lake Shelbyville, trading sci-fi books and the trips to SIU for halloween among the many many things we did. We had a great ride in our youth and sorry you went so soon.

I always new he was afoot when I heard his spoon stirring in his favorite coffee mug at work. I will remember him as a thoughtful, generous, and stalwart spirit, always willing to share an intriguing story. What a great life well lived. Wade will be missed.
