In fond remembrance of a very good friend and colleague. May his dear wife Carol and all the extended Wenzl family be blessed with love and good memories of this wonderful human being. RIP, Jim.

In remembrance of a friend and colleague who did much for sake of our children, community and church. My prayers are offered this anniversary for a wonderful husband, father and grandfather that he may rest eternally in the loving arms of our Lord, Jesus Christ.

Dr. Wenzl was my first kidney doctor, then years later I end up working with him. He was always kind and considerate of my health. He will be missed.

I am sad to hear of Dr Wenzl's passing. He was an amazing doctor. When I was 25 yrs old he had to tell me I was too old to be his patient. A fun memory was in 1979 at Kamp Kidney when we had the "cow patty" throwing contest. He will forever live in the hearts of those knew him. My prayers are with his family. Rest in peace Dr Wenzl until we meet again.

Dr Wenzl was a saint! Because of him, my sister is alive today, and has had her 3rd transplanted kidney for 26 years. My family truly appreciated his dedication to his patients. I always wondered if he ever rested. My deepest sympathies to all of the family, may you have many wonderful memories of him to carry you through the grief. May you rest in peace Dr. Wenzl.

To Carol and the rest of the family, my deepest sympathies and love go out to you! Dr. Wenzl was so important in my life growing up. I would probably not be here today, nor be the man I am without his influence on me as he helped me through so many hard times growing up with my kidney disease. I will never forget him and what he did for me!

Our sincere condolences to the Wenzl family. What an amazing man he was and I see why Jenna looked up to him so much. Our love and prayers are with all of you. Tom & Deborah Johnson and Stephen Overman
