Thomas Joseph Wade went to rest with the Lord and his Mom on June 4, 2026.
He was a person who defied the odds; according to doctors, he was not supposed to see his fifth birthday, so he decided to prove them wrong! Tommy lived until just three weeks short of his 70th birthday.
Tommy was preceded in death by his Mother, Vernell; his Father, Raymond; and his Brothers, Ronald Wade, Kenneth Wade, and Ralph Butery.
He is survived by his Brother, Michael; and Sister-in-Law, Beverly; many nieces, and nephews, as well as, even more friends.
He spent his last few months in a Host Home with Jessica and Tory Teasley, along with their children, Marley and Kaden, who treated him like a brother.
He was loved by all.
Tommy will be forever in our hearts.
