Timothy J. Lade, age 58, of Medina, OH passed away on Sunday, November 10, 2024, surrounded by family. Tim was born on November 24, 1965, to Arthur J. and Marlene A. Lade in Parma, Ohio. He grew up in Brunswick, OH and graduated from the Medina County Career Center. After graduation, Tim joined the workforce and had a long career in construction for 40 years. Tim could be considered a jack of all trades; if he did not know how to build it, or fix it, he would figure it out.

Tim loved to relax and have a good time surrounded by family and friends. He spent many late nights laughing and playing cards. He also loved a good game of horseshoes or any other backyard games, and he tended to dominate in them. In his later years, Tim could often be found on a lake, or a river in his kayak surrounded by friends. When Tim wasn't on an adventure, he always either had a woodworking project going on or would be helping family and friends with their projects. In Tim's downtime, he could be found in the garage, sitting in his chair, enjoying a cold beverage. Tim will be missed by all who knew him.
He is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Lori (Chirdon) Lade; his children, Stacey Workman, Matt Leatherman, Ashley Leatherman, Lindsay (Bob) Posatiere, and Nick Lade; his cherished grandchildren, Jordan and Abby Workman, Brooke, Kyla, Liam and Evan Posatiere, and Leena Milano; his mother, Marlene (Knaack) Lade; his sister, Judi Lade, and many dear friends.

Tim is preceded in death by his father, Art Lade, and his brother, Mike Lade.

The family will receive friends Thursday, November 14, 2024, from 4:00 to 8:00pm at Waite Funeral Home, 765 N Court Street, Medina, OH 44256. A funeral service will be held on Friday, November 15, 2024, at 1:00 p.m.
