“On behalf of the City of Langford and members of Langford Council, I extend my heartfelt condolences to the loved ones of former Langford City Councillor Roger Wade. Mr. Wade is fondly remembered as a trusted and devoted Council member. His exemplary leadership through his many years on Council and various Committees will continue to resonate in the community. Our thoughts are with the Wade family during this challenging time.”

His invaluable leadership, passion and support as General Manager for the Westshore Rebels will be greatly missed.
In acknowledgment of Mr. Wade’s passing, and a tribute to his community advocacy, the City has lowered the flags across Langford to half-mast.
