He moved to Havre with his family when he was a young boy where he attended schools. Wade worked as a seismographer and also at Havre Day Activity Center. He went to work for the Railroad in 2001 and retired in 2010 due to his injuries from his motorcycle accident. Wade was a unique individual. He had a great passion for people, always wanting to cheer people up with his funny jokes or just tease them relentlessly. He enjoyed watching his daughter and granddaughter play sports throughout their school years. He would call his family members every day just to make them laugh. He had a compassionate heart and put others before himself. In his healthy years Wade enjoyed being outdoors camping, fishing, hunting and going to the Bear Paw Mountains to the White Buffalo water fall or to Hardy Creek in Cascade. He enjoyed his motorcycles; he had a Harley and Indian motorcycle that he enjoyed working on and riding. He was a good mechanic and had ingenious ideas on how to make things work.
