Wade lived and worked in several places upon leaving MMI. Wade had just recently moved back to Holstein and had just starting working a Simonsen’s in Quimby.

Wade was the type of person who would talk to anyone and could always make you smile.  He will be remembered for his great sense of humor.  Wade liked the Green Bay Packers, playing video games and Mountain Dew.

Wade is survived by his parents, Jay Breyfogle and Lisa Breyfogle, Holstein; sister Molly Scadlock and husband Gene, Cedar Rapids; grandparents Jim and Karen Breyfogle, Holstein and Doris Heikes, Decorah; many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Duane Heikes.
