Roscoe Wade

 

Rev. Roscoe Wade passed away October 14, 2020.  He was only 62.  He found about 6 months ago he had adrenal cancer.  It was stage 4.  I grew up with his wife, Barbara Rudd Wade.  I stayed over night at the Rudd’s home.  Jonell, Barbara’s Sister, was a good friend and still is.  Barb was just a little girl then.  I hope she will be supported by her strong family.  I know the sadness she will face.
