Blake Wade Meador, 43, of  Anahuac, Texas , was killed in a car accident on Saturday, Dec. 3, 2016. He was born on May 3, 1973, in Houston and was the son of Royce A. Meador and Janie Cunningham Meador.

Blake grew up in Marble Falls, Roby, and Sherman, Texas, graduating  from high school in Marble Falls. As a child, Blake was active in the Boy Scouts in the Marble Falls area, played some football in Roby, and as a young teenager, was an acolyte at Trinity Episcopal Church in Marble Falls. He made his home here until he moved to the Baytown area less than a year ago.

He was sales manager of Maaco in Baytown and an active member of Trinity Baptist Church in Anahuac, where he was a member of the choir.

Blake loved to fish, play guitar, and was a talented artist. But his passion was his three children and two grandchildren.
