An amazing person that I had the pleasure to work with for so many years. Never I will forget when she introduced to me my husband. We will miss you!

As a former VAR with Laserfiche I have experienced the leadership and brilliance of Mrs. Wacker.
As one whose wife has had breast cancer twice and each time a full mastectomy I know first-hand the struggles and challenges that Mrs. Wacker and her family endured. This is one tough, smart, well-liked woman. May she rest in peace and God Speed to her family in their grieving. My wife is 15 years a survivor.

Nien-Ling introduced her eldest son, Tom, into our life sixteen years ago and there began a wonderful adventure. In so many ways her legacy continues.

Nien-ling was my sister in law for twenty years. I knew her as a joyous, loving, generous and caring woman. While she may have been an important and very successful business person, she was equally a successful wife, mother and friend. Her smile and laughter lit up the room when she entered. I, my wife and my sons miss her terribly.
