I own this old farm now. Previously the Wade farm.

I grew up here, I haven’t lived there in about five years but my whole childhood is wrapped up in that place. Memories I’ll hold close to my heart forever of my grandma Erma Wade (1920-2011) and my father Robert Wade (1965-2009) both took great care of this land.

My mother and twin sister still own some of this land as well, so I can still come back and reminisce with them as well as let my daughter play where I once did.

This farm used to belong to my grandparents, emmit and erma Wade, I spent much of my time here on this farm, helping plant vegetables, and tobacco,my aunt's and uncles grew it, my parents and my grandparents, we all helped one another in each of there fields, I will always remember this farm in my heart, the memories I will cherish, and to my grandparents who were well loved in this community,will live on in my heart for the rest of my life.
