Sister Wendy was a delightful soul who, in her series, was never at a loss for words when it came to describing art. She always had wonderful, "colorful" verbiage and equally expressions and body language. Thank you Sister Wendy for hours of delightful shows! You are missed!

Sister Wendy, I lover her religious life and her spirituality, her humanity, her scholarship and her wit, and good humour.

Sister Wendy brought her natural curiosity, eloquence and appreciation for all talent to the screen and to her books, allowing so many of us to see art the way she saw it. She had a truly unique gift and was such a generous soul to share this with us, the readers and viewers. Sister Wendy made so many lives that much richer and I'm deeply saddened to hear of her passing. Rest in Peace and God Bless.

Her humor and astounding knowledge of art was so refreshing...and most of all, her laughter. There will never be another like her. God knew what he was doing when he called Sister Wendy to the ministry of sharing art history to the world. May the Lord continue to put her on the hearts of fans that they will keep...
