  • Notes 
    • Emily Kathleen (Kay) Wade
      Kay Wade, formerly of Harvey, NB, wife of the late Leonard ‘Len’ Alban Wade, passed away peacefully with family by her side on May 9, 2020 at her home at Shannex, Thomas Hall in Fredericton, NB. Kay was born at Glassville, Carleton County, NB on January 31, 1929, a daughter of the late James and A. Kathleen (Miller) Hovey.

      Kay was a retired R.N. having received her education and training at the Victoria Public Hospital in Fredericton, graduating in 1950, the same year as she married Len. She dedicated her life to her career as an R.N. and to her family. As part of a military family, Kay managed to blend many postings and her nursing career while having four children.

      Upon retiring in 1983, she and Len moved from Ottawa, ON to their Harvey Lake residence. Kay spent her retirement years clogging, square dancing, playing bridge and traveling to their winter home in Florida. With the birth of grandchildren, Kay and Len traveled far afield to provide loving support. Kay was an avid gardener and enjoyed picking and preserving raspberries, apples and fiddleheads. She also found joy in baking, knitting and sewing for her family. In her later years, Kay stayed active with all her hobbies and took on the role of caring for her husband and relished the many annual Hovey Family Reunions.

      Kay is survived by her children, Debra Drijber (Rudy), Moffatt, ON, Deanna Wade, Fredericton, NB, James Wade (Maria), League City, TX and Cheryl Weekes, Fredericton, NB; eleven grandchildren, Cailin, Dan and Luke Drijber, Robbie, Lisa and Adam Kennedy, Alysha-Rae, Amber and Alannah Weekes, Daniel Mitchell and Tina Lashambe; six great grandchildren; her sisters, Carolyn Rowe (Ronald), Harvey, NB and Marilyn Hicks (William), Fredericton, NB; a brother-in-law, Gerald Covey, Fredericton, NB; many dear cousins, nieces and nephews.

      In addition to her parents and husband, Kay was predeceased by two grandchildren, Sarah and Benjamin Drijber; her sisters, Jean Flemming and June Covey; and a special friend Lloyd Dawson.

      A graveside service will be held at a later date in Fredericton, NB.

      For those who wish to make a donation in memory of Kay, the family has suggested the Brunswick Street Baptist Church or a charity of the donor’s choice.
