Gene Wade, RPh, is a retired pharmacist in our hometown, Douglas, Georgia. He and his wife, Mrs. Jane, owned and operated a pharmacy that her parents started in 1938 named McRae's Pharmacy. He has been an integral part of Coffee County healthcare for many years.

He has worn many hats in our community, including being the Legendary Voice of the Trojans since 1976! You can listen to Mr. Gene provide play by play action for many sports at Coffee High School. Most recently, he called the game as the Coffee High Trojans won their FIRST Georgia High School Association Class 5A Football State Championship alongside his longtime co-host Leslie Byron Smith and grandson and former Coffee High Trojan quarterback Wade Sumner.

Mr. Gene takes us down memory lane, and shares with us not only his love for radio broadcast, but his sincere desire to do all that he can do to make a positive impact on the children in our community. Mr. Gene also shares with us the positive impact that sports has on youth.

He even tells a story of how he and a friend built their own radio station when he was just a boy!

We were truly mesmerized talking with Mr. Gene! He is a shining example of how one person can be legendary and make such a positive impact on so many! We truly hope that you enjoy this show!

Thank you Mr. Gene for spending time with us!

We would also like to extend a huge CONGRATULATIONS to our State Champion Coffee High School Football Team and Staff!!
