To the sweetest and most caring Muntz family. My heart hurts for you. Many prayers love and hugs today and all the days to come.
I am so sorry for your loss. Wade and I both went to OU, although we did not meet for the first time until we worked together at K-Force. I will miss our daily talks about recruiting, sports and our love for our family. I had 4 girls and he had 3 so we had many things in common. I am heartbroken for his family and pray that God will lift them up and help with healing. God speed Wade Muntz
My heart goes out to the Muntz family.
Enjoyed being with Wade as we had our daughters go through adventure princesses together with a great group of guys. It was great to connect with him later at Rock Creek!
Muntz family I am so sorry for your loss.
We are so very sorry, words fall short as we know how heavy your hearts must be. Please know you & your Beautiful babies are being lifted up constantly. The smile he had will forever shine!🤍
May the Father surround you with peace and comfort sweet Tisha. May the memories you hold close bring you joy in the days ahead and may God watch over you and your girls all the days of your lives.
Really going to miss his smile and great personality. Rest easy and comfortable in the arms of our Savior.
Tisha and Girls,
We are so deeply sorry for your great loss. We know he is watching over y’all with his love, peace, and unwavering support!
Prayers continued for all!
WAM- what a fantastic guy who was an absolute blast to be around!!!!! RIP my friend and prayers up for your family🙏🙏
Sometimes God sends a special person in our lives for just a short time to brighten our lives! He certainly brightened the lives of my family and me! Corky
He was always a polite young man and I knew he loved all his girls very much and they spoiled him to Lol
An incredible human being and enormous loss for anyone lucky enough to come into his orbit.
Rest In Peace Brother!!
Looking forward to continuing our laughter filled conversations on the other side!!
I have such wonderful memories of our Sunday school class at FUMC Frisco. Wade always had us in stitches and was so full of life. Tisha, you Wade and the girls have a permanent place in our hearts and will live in our prayers now and in the days and weeks to come. Please know how much you are loved!
We love you Tisha, Peyton, Alli, and Lauren. Wade was a great husband, father and friend and we’ll miss him but know that he’s smiling and laughing in heaven with our father in heaven.
I’m so sorry for your loss!
Wade was truly an amazing person who touched the lives of so many with kindness and generosity. He always had a way of making everyone feel special and valued, offering a helping hand and a listening ear whenever it was needed. His wisdom, humor, and warmth left a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege to know him.
Tisha, Peyton, Alli and Lauren, please know we are thinking of and praying for all of you and know that Wade will be watching over you all with a smile.
I did not have the opportunity to spend as much time with Wade as I would have wished for. Probably a feeling I share with many. How can you ever spend enough time with such a wonderful human being. Still, he touched my life in real and meaningful ways through Tisha and those beautiful daughters, Peyton, Alli, and Lauren. David and I are holding you in our hearts and prayers, and accompany you in this special time of sorrow mixed with joyful memories.
Tisha,
I am so very sorry for your loss. May you feel God’s loving arms wrapping you in comfort and peace. May sweet memories sustain you in the coming days. Sending love and big hugs to your sweet family.
I’m so sorry to hear of his passing. Never got to meet him. But you and the family are in my prayers.
I’m so very to hear of Wade’s passing. Tisha, you and your family are lifted up in prayers. My God hold you ever so closely. Cherish all the beautiful memories, God gives the memories so that we hold our loved one ever so close in our mind and always in our hearts. Wade will always be with you in spirt, mind and your heart forever.🙏🏼🤗❤
Hugs of love and comfort to all of you. Wade was one of the best. I didn’t really see him much after high school, but I will never forget him or the many times he made us all laugh.
So glad Wade came into our lives. His humor and love for life were infectious. Truly going to miss him. Love you all.
He was always seen with a smile on his face and one of the most supportive people. He will always be a part of some of my favorite childhood memories and made me to be a better person, I know many people feel the same way. He was one of a kind and will forever be with y’all watching over and protecting your family.
My condolences to you Tisha and the Muntz Family for your tragic loss.
Wade will be missed.
My heart and prayers go out to you and your family for peace and comfort during this difficult time.
A great man that will be missed.
I’m so very sorry to hear of Wade’s passing! We became good friends in our early working days in Dallas (bonded over the fact that we were both from Okla.), and lost touch as we all moved away and on with our lives. He was a special person who always had a smile and a fun family story. Tisha, you and your girls are in my heart and my prayers! I have fun memories of you guys when you first started dating, and it is clear your life together has been a blessing. We join everyone who is praying for you and your families. God Bless Wade.
