WADE, Randy Wade

It is with saddened hearts that we announce the passing of Randy Jay Wade at the age of 60, at Bluewater Health on May 25, 2026. Randy was born in Sarnia, Ontario on August 2, 1965. He is survived by his son, Cyrus Wade, and his former wife, Kelly Wade. Dear brother of Wanda (David) Templeton, Paul Wade, Karen (Gary) Lewis, William (Beverly) Wade, Larry (Monica) Wade, Pat (the late Greg, 2018) Scarrow, and Bonnie Boudreau. Randy was predeceased by his beloved parents, Albert and Violet Wade. He will also be deeply missed by his cherished nieces and nephews: Lisa and Sonya Templeton and Andrea VanVeller; Lauren Wade; Adrienne LaBelle; Angela and Jason Wade; Shannon, Ryan Boudreau and Michael Finlayson; and Megan White, as well as many great-nieces and nephews.

Randy proudly served in the Canadian Navy in his younger years. A true jack of all trades, he was known for his strong work ethic and his willingness to help with anything he could, always happy to lend a hand. He was known for his warm sense of humour and engaging personality, and for living life to the beat of his own drum. Randy was generous and kind-hearted, consistently making others feel welcome and valued. He possessed a genuine gift for conversation, took great pleasure in helping others, enjoyed cooking, and cherished time spent in the company of friends and family, enjoying life’s simple moments together. Randy’s kindness, humour, and generous spirit will not be forgotten. His presence will be deeply missed, but his memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved him.

Cremation has taken place. In keeping with Randy’s wishes, a Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Sympathy may be expressed through donations to River City Vineyard and Sarnia & District Humane Society. Arrangements entrusted to Smith Funeral Home, 1576 London Line, Sarnia.
