My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family of Wanda Cornell! She truly is a great loss to many of
us whose life she touched in her very quiet and dignified way.

What wonderful memories we have of sharing good times with Wanda. We'll miss you and keep you in our prayers. You were truely a friend.
Our sympathy to all her family.

I played tennis with your Mom and I can tell you she will be missed. Not only did she love her tennis, all of us who had the pleasure of sharing the court with her loved her. She was a dear. I send my deepest sympathy and are keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Please accept my deepest sympathy on Wanda's death. I played tennis with her at Winnetka and she was a marvelous lady. I know she will be greatly missed by her family and all her friends.
