Wade Eldon Debrick began his journey of life on January 8, 1958. He was the son of Clarence and Ora Debrick, and was the youngest of five children. As a boy, he enjoyed life on the farm in Central Point, and found his lifelong passion of fabrication and working with livestock. In high school, he was a member of the Crater FFA and was Chapter President in 1976.
Wade had a love and passion for his two boys, Matt and Mike. During their childhood, much of his free time was spent helping them and others gain success as a 4-H leader of Valley View Livestock Club and helped establish the Southern Oregon Junior Classic Livestock Show in Central Point, where young people from afar could experience the beauty of The Rogue Valley. Later in life, he was able to relive those fond memories when his grandson Clarence established his own love for showing sheep. Many nights were spent in short conversation between "Papa" and Clancy about how their days were going.
After the boys were grown, Wade found friends in hobbies that took him to many places. His most recent love was building and competing in his Pulling Truck, named "What was I thinking?" He was always a friendly face, ready to give words of encouragement to other competitors, and he truly enjoyed the camaraderie in everything he did.
Wade is preceded in death by Ora Debrick (Mother), Clarence Debrick (Father), Wayne Debrick (Brother), Diane Debrick (Sister), and Lucy Lea Debrick (Grand Daughter).
Left to cherish Wade's Memory are his Willie Debrick (Brother), Donna Jean Debrick (Sister), and his children: The Matthew Debrick Family, of Ireton, Iowa & The Michael Debrick Family, of Gold Hill, Oregon.
