He grew up in St. Claire Shores, Michigan, where he attended and graduated from South Lake High School in 1991. He went on to pursue a successful career at Chrysler as a valued employee.

Wade was a devoted father who cherished his two children, Wade Jr. and Isabella. He deeply loved spending time with his family and he was always there to support and encourage them through every milestone.

Wade, described by those who knew him as having a laugh you could never forget, had a boundless smile and a kind word or a joke for everyone he met. His spirit of kindness and compassion will long be remembered by all who were lucky enough to cross his path.

Wade Collum’s impact on the world was immeasurable, and he leaves behind his loving family and friends. His memory will forever be cherished, and his spirit will continue to live on through all those he touched during his lifetime.
