Known for his playful nature, Buddy was always ready with a prank and a smile that could light up a room.

He is survived by his sons, Dane Wade and Corley Wade; his daughters, Samantha Wade Runnels (Matt) and Skyler Wade (Cindy); and his treasured granddaughters, Aubrey Hall and Ainsley Runnels. He also leaves behind his brother-in-law, Byron Smith; his niece, Haley Smith Sumrall (Brent); and two nephews, Ben and Judah Sumrall.
