Wade Elmer Marlette Obituary
We are sad to announce that on February 15, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Wade Elmer Marlette (Durham, North Carolina). Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Wade Elmer Marlette to show support.
As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Wade Elmer may no longer walk among us, his spirit lives on in the echoes of his kindness, the warmth of his embrace, and the light of his enduring love.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Lt Cmdr Wade E Marlette and Martha Ruth Hayes Marlette (Durham). He is survived by: his brother Graham Hayes Marlette; his godson Robert G Kirkpatrick III; and his cousin Ernest Marlette.
In lieu of flowers, please send donations to the Sonny Marlette Foundation to restore historic Whitehall Terrace and build the Martha Ruth Hayes Memorial Gardens overlooking Duke Park. Memorial donations can be made online at http://www.bulltanica.com.
