Wanda,
Was a great person. Every since meeting her back in 1996... as a friend of the family here in Norfolk, Va, I've had only positive experiences being among the company of her and sons. May God Bless Wanda's soul and definately keep her family strong through this great loss. Thank You Wanda for being naturally a good person full circle. God Bless, Christopher Davis

I will never forget her cause a part of her still lives in my heart. She was a wonderful adoptive mom to have. So I say to you all may your heart & soul find peace and comfort.

My Dear Neighbor,

You have exchanged your earthly hats for a Halo, and are now "walking" among God's angels. I'm thankful we were neighbors and became friends.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to family and friends, and especially those (Mr. "GI") who were so devoted to loving and caring for Wanda during her illness. May God Bless You!

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
