Charles Neil Wade

Charles Neil Wade (Chuck) was born January 23, 1971 in Hico, Texas where he also passed from this life to the next last Tuesday, April 22, 2025 at the age of 54 years. He was raised by his parents Neil and Lela Wade, and graduated high school from Southside Christian Academy in Arlington, Texas. While there he met and raved about the pretty new girl named Meredith Franks, and convinced her to marry him on August 3, 1991. From this union God blessed them with two children: son Cameron Neil Wade and daughter Ashley Renee Wade. For many years, Chuck worked as a quality control lab manager for various ink producers before becoming ill. As a ten year old, he made his profession of faith in Jesus as his Savior and was baptized while living in Minnesota where his parents served a mission church. 

Chuck, Meredith and their family attended church at Calvary Chapel in Ft. Worth. Chuck loved to hunt and spent many hours doing so. His parents have stories about his early exploits in wanting to try different meats.

Chuck is survived by his parents; his wife, Meredith; his son, Cameron; his daughter, Ashley; his sister, Kristin Dysart and husband, Clayton of Celina Texas; brother, Philip Wade and wife, Rachal of Hico, brother, Timothy Wade and wife Kara, of Pecan Plantation, brother, Stephen Wade and wife, Crystal of Hico; ten nephews; 4 nieces; and many other family members and friends.
