It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden passing of our eldest son Wade Ronald Smith at the young age of 63 on May 21, 2024, from heart failure at home in Beaver Bank NS.
Wade was born in Halifax April 12th, 1961. He was born early, weighing only 4 ½ lbs. He fought then and survived and remained strong throughout his life.

Wade completed his education mostly in Lower Sackville before venturing out into the world.
Wade retired from Sobeys Grocery Stores after more than 30 years of service working mainly night shift which took a toll on his health and relationships. He remained single during his life.
Wade got much pleasure from his collections of comics, books, movies, and other interests.
Wade was also a big fan of the Toronto Blue Jays and loved WWE Wrestling and Hockey.
We will miss Wades’ laughter, jokes, and opinions, and his comments on life in general.

He will be sorely missed by his immediate family, in particular.
Wade is survived by parents Ronald and Myrna (Parks) Smith, brothers Todd and Mark (Bonnie), many cousins, aunts and uncles, and other relatives.
Wade was predeceased by his grandparents – Bill and Vivian Smith, Cherry Hill NS and George and Melba Parks, East Port Medway NS.

Cremation has taken place and a graveside service and burial will be held at 2pm, on Saturday July 6, in the East Port Medway Community Cemetery, Queens County. 
If you wish, memorial donations may be made to a charity of your choice in Wade’s name.

Arrangements have been entrusted to R.A. Corkum Funeral Home, Wileville, where on-line condolences may be made by visiting www.corkumfuneralhome.ca
