Condense word search code

I have pasted our word search code in hopes that someone will be able to find ways to condense our code since it takes about 45 seconds to load. In our code, we have the words set only going vertical since we couldn't find a way to place them horizontally and vertically without a lot of overlapping. If you have any advice, it will be appreciated.
