    Eric, Melody, Heidi, Dereck and families:

    Wanda was one of the most amazing people I have ever known. She had a heart of gold, a fantastic sense of humor, incredibly caring, and could be tough as nails. While she may have been short on stature, she was a giant in presence. It saddens me to think she’s gone. She truly was one of a kind. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.

    Melody, Hiedi and family. It is with deep sorry that I write this, for I know it is very hard to give up a loved one. I know she held a very special place in your hearts and lives. She will still always be in your heart. She will always be a part of you and you have that to cherish. My prayers go out to you and your families to give you the strength to continue with your lives without her. I know you will cherish the time you had with her. She was a great person and held a very special place in my mother’s life and I am thankful for that. She may be gone, but she will never be forgotten.

    I am truely saddened to hear of Wanda’s passing. My heart goes out to all who loved her and will miss her. For a few short years Wanda was my little sister and I have such fond memories of those days. She was so full of life and I will miss her greatly.

    Oh girls – I just read a stack of newspapers and saw your mom’s picture. My heart is sick. I didn’t know she was sick, let alone passed away. We had such AWESOME times when her and I shared an office in 1987-88. I spent about every night over the summer with her. She was so darn much fun and loved life. I am so sorry I wasn’t there. I’m devastated. My prayers are definitely with you. <3
