Wayde left his mark on anyone he met. Those who knew him never forgot him. As a youngster he was a boy scout where he won dual honors in pinewood and space derby. He loved animals and horses.

Later on he enjoyed being an entrepreneur with a handful of companies. One of his many specialties included being a heavy duty equipment mechanic.
Wayde took pride in his yard, telling stories and forcing food on anyone who visited him. His biggest passion was his family of which he will be leaving a massive hole in their lives. A huge part of his compassion was organizing a community outreach where he enjoyed making coffee and handing out donuts every Sunday for his friends at his church Genesis Project Provo.
