Wanda was a “HOOT”. She was full of grit and fire. She seemed to look for the best in others and had a real keen awareness to a situation you were working on…..even if the situation had not been discussed. She had “GOOD” mama instinct. Wanda was my friend. She made a lasting impression on the way I wanna be when I’m an “ole lady”. I want to laugh and spoil all the people I love. Wanda……REST. ALL is well..Thanks be to God from whom all blessings flow. Wanda was a blessing to me and I am grateful I knew her. Amen
