Dear Kent,
My heart is so brokenhearted for you to learn about Wendy's recent passing. She was a delight to know and loved spending time with her 3 yrs ago at the big Iowa reunion. Deepest sympathy to you and hope you know how much your family cares and are near in thought today.
Love and hugs, Margie

My favorite memory of Wendy is from a few Christmas parties ago (my husband worked for Kent). Everyone was raving about her famous rum balls. She made them for the office each year, but I couldn't chime in with accolades because my husband's rum balls never made it home. They were too good that he would finish them at the office. I proceeded to tell Wendy that I had HEARD about the rum balls, but I had never tasted them. The next year, I received my very own tin - with a seal to know if my husband had gotten in to them before I did :)
