The family would like to express a thank you to all of you who sent their sympathys in the recent death of my only child, Wendy. We loved her very much. Wendy was a character and had a lovely smile. She is now at peace, not suffering or hurting. She talked about seeing God, hearing his voice, over the past four years. I know is in God's hands.

Laurie, it was good to see you and have you stop by the house. Keep in touch. Thanks to all of you.

My blessings to all of you.
With Love, her mother,

I can remember when Wendy and I were little girls and she use to come over to my next door neighbors house on Sundays and we use to play. This afternoon being at the funeral home and seeing a childhood friend leaving us way to soon, makes you stop and think about how important life is. We should thank God for our families and friends and appreciate what we have, because we never know if there is going to be a tomorrow. Wendy you will be missed by all that knew and loved you, my heart goes out to your family and I will keep them in my prayers.

My condolences to Wendy's family. I was shocked and saddened to hear the news of Wendy's passing yesterday. I have known Wendy since Elementary School, and she was one of my close friends in Middle School. She was so much fun to be around, and always had me laughing. Unfortunately, we lost touch over the years, but I often thought about her. Her picture is beautiful,and she looks just like I remember. My prayers are with the family. God Bless!

Jeannette,
Again I am very sorry for the loss of Wendy. She will be missed. Her picture only begins to show what a truly kind, fun spirited person she was. Her smile and giggle was infectous. I will always cherish my memories of when we were kids at Nanny and Papa's house with all the cousins together. Even when we did not feel like laughing, Wendy had a way of making us laugh. She was truly a wonderful, kind, sweet, fun, person. I loved her even though we lost touch over the last couple of years, I thought of her often.
Love you and her always,
Teresa White
