Obituary for William Wade
Wade, William "Billy"
With profound sadness we announce the passing of our dear William Wade, “Billy” who died suddenly at the age of 55 in Kitchener Ontario on June 15, 2022.
Loving father of Sarah (Chris) and Delaney. Loving Papa to Briannalyn and Carson. Predeceased by his parents Donaldina and William and his brother John. Survived by his siblings Ken, Lesley (Malcolm) and Sharon and sister-in-law Joanne. He will be missed by his nieces and nephews Marnie (Shane), Michelle (Andrew), Wee Lesley, Madison and Rider. He will also be missed by his many cousins.
Billy’s infectious hearty laugh and great sense of humor will be missed by all. He had an excellent work ethic and keen eye for attention to detail which is what made his painting such quality workmanship. A good athlete particularly in soccer for the game he cherished most. He would never say no to a rock concert and has an extensive list of musicians he’s seen over the years. Billy would give you the shirt off his back, assist with anything you needed him to do, and gave compliments when due. Goodbye for now.
