Dear Kevin, Kelli, Rob, Cathy and Families,

Words cannot begin to express my deep sadness for the loss of your beautiful wife, mother and grandmother. She was a lovely lady and a true friend. We enjoyed meeting for our monthly breakfast get togethers and off course, our bi weekly wine dates with the ladies. Indeed, any excuse to gather and gab was always well attended. Our circle is now broken and we will sorely miss our dear friend but she will always be in our hearts and her name always on our lips.

Please accept my most loving and sincere condolences at this time.

God Bless 🙏🙏

Karen had such an amazing energy and positivity. She cared about everyone so much, and you could truly feel it. The world has lost an amazing light; there will be an extra bright star in skies. Condolences to the entire Wade family and everyone who loved her.

I remember Karen’s kindness and friendliness, big smile and the welcoming greetings, and I remember her wonderful singing at a Christmas dinner at her parent’s house. She’ll be sadly missed by all of her family and friends and I will remember her fondly.

She always took time to chat.
Please let us know if we can do anything to help.
May God grant you His peace and comfort at this difficult time.

Amazing cousin. Always the most fun at our annual Shantz reunions in Goderich. She had as much fun as the kids did, maybe that was the teacher in her. Always laughing, smiling, positive, never heard a mean or negative word from her. Someone you wanted to be around as she made you feel good. Visited last summer at cousin Charlene’s home and was a wonderful mini reunion with Marianne as well. So happy we all got together to catch up and reminisce. Karen’s family were all so very fortunate to have her as their Mom, sister, wife, grandmother, friend, cousin, aunt, even though we would’ve loved another 20 + years with her, we’re very thankful and blessed to have had her in our lives as long as we did. A life well lived and loved and will be dearly missed.

Karen was a friend and colleague. In the many years she taught kindergarten, her light touched the children that she encountered including my own daughter who has fond memories of the care and affection she so generously received from her first teacher. Working in Karen’s classroom was a treat. Always cheerful, Karen’s effervescent personality was a breath of fresh air. It was an honour and pleasure to work with her. To Kevin & family, we express our deepest condolences. Take comfort knowing that Karen’s light is now making heaven brighter and she will always be present in spirit. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Sincerely, David Cann and Many Ann Hogan

Kevin & family: So sorry to hear of Karen’s passing. She was such a kind and gracious lady and will be greatly missed. Our thoughts & prayers are with you.

My sympathies to you Kevin, and to your children, Kelli, Robert, Cathy and your grandchildren.
I just found out last night (December 29th) as I read through the Goderich Obituaries, that your beautiful Karen has passed away. Shock and then tears. I hold such fond memories so long ago with Karen, of her sharpness, her wit, her gorgeous smile and so very kind. Her skin was so radiant.
Her battles that wouldn’t leave her body alone, is now over. Her welcome wagon that greeted her in heaven was huge, and one of those dear souls, was my mom, Genevieve Madden. Kevin and family, there are no words that can truly comfort what you are still going through, but please know that so many are with you in heart, and with such wonderful family members and dear friends, you will get by each day, and Karen will always be with you every moment of your days ahead.
From my siblings and I that met Karen so many times over the years, we send our heartfelt condolences.
The Madden’s and Drake’s

My deepest condolences for your loss. I remember Mrs. Wade (as I knew her) as a kind and gentle soul at the school when I was a child growing up in Goderich :). She had a truly lovely and enduring spirit. Deepest sympathies at this time.
