Mary Katherine Wade (nee Nagle) of Warminster, PA - died peacefully on Saturday, October

Operation Leadership Academy, leaving an indelible mark on countless lives. She had a unique

ability to inspire and guide others, always encouraging them to become the best versions of

themselves. Her influence was nothing short of remarkable.



Described by those who knew her best as spunky, Kate was not only loyal and caring but

radiated a warmth that touched everyone she met. Guided by her faith, Kate tried to live her

life by the saying “Nothing is more pleasing to God than a grateful heart.”

Kate is survived by her loving husband, John Wade, her adoring daughters, Nora and Maggie,

her brothers, Joseph C. (Cindy) Nagle and Mark T. (Michelle) Nagle, as well as several nieces and

nephews and family, relatives, and friends. She was predeceased by her beloved brother, James

F. Nagle Jr.
