Lois Fay Wade

Lois “Fay” Wade, 89, passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by her family on July 29, 2022.  Fay was born on August 30, 1932, in Lima to the late Virgil Lauck and Grace (Sawmiller) Lauck. She was married to John “Jack” Wade on December 1, 1951, who preceded her in death on September 15, 1992.

Fay was a bookkeeper for many years and together with Jack, they owned Sonitrol Security Systems here in Lima. She enjoyed weekly Bingo and camping; but more than anything she loved spending time with her family, especially her grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. Fay always made time for those in need, and the neighborhood knew her simply as mom. Ever the optimist, Fay always chose to see the good in everyone, she treasured every friendship and always had a kind word for anyone.

Fay is survived by her daughter, Jeanie (Mark) Lantz of Lima and son, Joel (Kathy) Wade of Knoxville, TN; four grandchildren, Jonathon (Kayla) Burkholder of Lima, Tylee (David) Spurgeon of Lima, Christian (Kahlea) Wade of Tampa, FL, and Karrington Wade of Utah; four great grandchildren, Ryleigh and Jonathon Burkholder, David and Lantz Spurgeon; and her friend, Thomas Parker

In addition to her parents, she is preceded in death by five brothers: Bernard, Virgil, Robert, Billy, and her twin brother Louis Ray Lauck; and two sisters, Lucille Cheney and Sylvia “Dodie” Binkley

The family will receive friends from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Thursday, August 11, 2022 at Chamberlain-Huckeriede Funeral Home, Lima, Ohio.  A funeral service will follow at 1 p.m.
