WADE, Peter Maxwell

Born on September 30, 1948. Passed away August 12, 2025.

Sadly passed away unexpectedly on 12 August 2025. Much loved husband of Judy. Loved father of Michael and Lisa, Rebecca and Wes. Adored and treasured Poppy Pete to McKensie, Keenan, Mikki, Taylor, Lucas and Koby — their biggest fan in all they did.

A cherished son, brother and uncle. And a good friend to so many.
We farewell a true sports nut at heart. Peter loved his fishing, the Richmond Tigers, and was a proud supporter of local baseball, footy, basketball and softball.

Forever in our hearts, always cheering us on.

  13. To say I’m heart broken would be a understatement. I think we all thought Petey would last forever. Many fond memories of a coach, a father figure, a Richmond Buddy. Working together on Hawks first diamond at the racecourse, where I first saw your love and OCD of perfect grass. Many chats about who I was dating at the time..never good enough in his eyes. Pushing my body 120% in Adelaide every year to make him happy. No more looking out for you at footy every week for a cuddle.
    Love to Judy, Michael, Bec and the Wade and Tilley Family..
