Services will be at 11 a.m. Saturday at First United Methodist Church in Gothenburg, with Mr. Frank Hochstetler officiating. Burial will be in the Gothenburg Cemetery, with military rites by the Gothenburg Honor Guard. Apfel Funeral Home in Grand Island is in charge of arrangements. Wade Joseph Haynes began his journey of life on March 3, 1929. His parents were Martin Luther Haynes and Martha Anna (Pohl) Haynes. Wade was the youngest of four children. Wade enjoyed growing up in Gothenburg. He loved his dogs, the railroad and the river. He was raised in the Methodist Church, went to Southside School for three years, and was proud to be part of the class that graduated in 1947. Wade played sports from sixth grade throughout his senior year. In his junior year of high school, his football team challenged the large and heavily favored Creighton Prep high school team for the 1945 All-State Championship. Wade’s Gothenburg Swedes won. In 1995, this team was inducted into the first Nebraska Hall of Fame. Wade still holds two Gothenburg high school records from the 1945 football team. Wade also loved to learn, was in the National Honor Society and became an Eagle Scout in 1944. He attributed many of his character values to his leaders in life, Clark Reeves and Nolan Jones. In 1945, Wade was chosen to work as a section hand for the Union Pacific Railroad. Later, he completed his 10 years with Union Pacific at the Valley stockyards. In 1951, Wade enlisted in the United States Army and was immediately placed to officer’s training. Unfortunately, Wade was found to have a loss of hearing and was honorably discharged. In 1954, Wade married Virginia Lee Christiansen. Wade and Ginny had two children, Kristi Lyn and Barbara Jo. In 1956, Wade and Ginny built the Dairy Queen in Valley and operated it until 1961, when they sold the business and moved to Grand Island to work for a lumber company. Wade also worked on a construction crew. In 1965, Wade was the first man called, but was not there to receive the call, so he was the seventh man to join the New Holland Company. In 1970, Wade and his family helped to build their home that Wade and Ginny would live in until the day that Wade couldn’t take care of it. He farmed their 80 acres just south of Cairo for eight years along with working at New Holland. He retired from Ford New Holland in 1990. Wade and Ginny enjoyed visiting their children and grandchildren and their families. They loved vacationing in Colorado and visited Canada, Mexico and Hawaii. During Wade’s retirement, he did a classic restoration on a 1965 Mustang. He loved maintaining his home and working on a very large country lawn, a beautiful acreage that was admired by many. After Wade’s lifelong wife of 52 years entered heaven in 2006, Wade moved to Benicia, Calif., in 2007 to be closer to his family. He resided in that area for seven years until he took his last breath in this life on Feb. 8, 2015. His legacy lives on with his daughters and their spouses, Kristi Lyn Hayden and Dan Hayden of Benicia, Calif., Barbara Jo Haynes-Olson and Ron Olson of Cairo; his four grandchildren and their spouses, Stacy and Manuel Valenzuela of Glendale, Ariz., Derik and Deanna Woitaszewski of Glendale, Ariz., Lindsey and Adam Castaneda of Honolulu, Hawaii, Matthew and Carly Hayden of Everett, Wash. He had 17 great-grandchildren. Wade was preceded in death by his parents; his dearly beloved wife, Ginny; his two sisters; and one brother.
