Martha Marie Wade, 84, went to her heavenly home on Saturday, February 10, 2018 at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Oxford. Born December 24, 1933, in Calhoun City, she was the daughter of the late Early B. Hardin and the late Vernie Vanlandingham Hardin. She was a member of New Liberty Baptist Church, and was retired from nursing. Marie graduated from Calhoun City High School in 1953. On February 13, 1954 she married the love of her life, Thomas H. Wade. Sr. and they were married for almost 63 years before his passing on January 28, 2017. Those who knew Marie will remember her for her love and devotion to her family. She cherished the time spent with her grandkids and great-grandkids, and also her dog, Shadow, whom she considered part of the family as well. Among her many hobbies were sewing, gardening, and decorating cakes. And oh how she loved her chickens! Marie is now with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and her family is comforted by knowing she has been reunited with her beloved husband, Thomas. She will be deeply missed by her family and friends, but her memory will be cherished in their hearts forever.
