Tribute to my brother:
Wade, I love you and have always looked up to you as a big brother. You taught me so much. We used to swing on the ropes and climb trees together. We used to watch Tarzan movies and the TV series Jungle Jim together. You taught me how to drive with a stick shift. I love and appreciate your example as a Christian son, brother, father, husband, and church and community member. You set such a good example of a strong work ethic, providing for your family. Thank you for a life well lived.
