Sometimes in life , if you are lucky, God sends you an angel. A special person who crosses your life's path and makes a difference....that was my sweet Wanda . We spent hours listening to Beatle music up in your room and sat side by side in the pews at Calvary Lutheran Church. You and your Mom hosted a bridal shower for me in your home and yes, you were the prettiest person in my wedding party as you always had a sparkle in your eyes and a beautiful smile. Our visits over the years became fewer but we will make up for that when we catch up on our Heavenly walks together. Rest peacefully my sweet Angel, my dear sweet Wanda.
