Wade J. Bolotte

December 28, 1927 — January 21, 2025

Wade J. Bolotte, devoted husband, beloved father, grandfather and great grandfather peacefully passed away on January 21, 2025. He was 97 years old. 

Born in New Orleans in 1927, Wade lived a remarkable life as a devoted husband to Barbara Prejean Bolotte (deceased) for 65 years; a father to 8 children, Wade, Jr (Muguet), Dianne (Kay), Marion (Jean Pierre), Cecilia (Michael), Robert, Russell (Edna), David (Kimberly), Mark (Suzanne) and grandfather to 14 and a great grandfather to 15. They will miss him deeply. His wit and wisdom were always a guiding light. Wade was a man of great faith and strong commitment to his family and community. He was a Veteran of WWII, serving proudly in the United State Air Force. His 40-year career with Bell South gave him much satisfaction. The family extends heartfelt gratitude to Liz Mitchell and her staff at Heavenly Staffing and the Veterans Administration, who lovingly cared for Wade the past three years. The family extends acknowledgement to Heart of Hospice Team who provided support and guidance during Wade’s final days. 

May Wade’s soul find eternal peace and his family and friends find solace in the cherished memories they shared with him.
