Wade MacInnes

It is with profound sadness that the family of Wade MacInnes shares the news of his passing.  Wade passed away peacefully at Haliburton Hospital in the evening of Tuesday, August 8th holding the hand of the love of his life, best friend and greatest support, his wife Julie MacInnes (nee Stamp).  Wade was the most loving and supportive Father to Shawn MacInnes (Miranda), Jade (Luke), and Donovan MacInnes (Mia).  Dear brother of Jennifer (Ed), Darren (Rose), Jeanette (Drew) and Dwayne (Jacquie).  Predeceased by his parents Angus & Myrna MacInnes and his brother Michael.

Nothing filled Wade with more pride than wholeheartedly embracing his role as Grandpa to his four beautiful grandsons, Leon and Cade, Jack and Connor. He also had a special place in his heart and found great comfort in the company of Indy.  For the entirety of Wade’s battle with lung cancer, he continued living with a positive outlook, expressing gratitude for the time he had to spend with his family and focusing on strengthening his already strong faith.  Since his diagnosis this past February, he has been surrounded by his loving family every step of the way. 

Wade spent his life working hard and raising his family in Haliburton.  A Community in which he loved, believed in and dedicated so much of himself to over the years through his volunteer efforts with Haliburton Minor Hockey in hopes of helping Haliburton to continue to be a great place to live for children, youth and families.  Wade will be remembered by family and close friends as incredibly hard-working, kind, compassionate, an entertaining storyteller and a die-hard Toronto Maple Leafs fan.  He will be so fondly remembered and so greatly missed by many. 

Wade’s family would like to extend a very special thank you to the nurses and doctors of Haliburton Hospital who cared for Wade with closeness and compassion throughout his final days.
