I worked under Wyoma for over 10 years. I learned so much from her. So many memories of her sharing so much with us. Wyoma, you shared your love of food and laughter with me more times than I can remember. I will carry those memories with me forever. This past week we have found comfort in your memories and the woman that was Wyoma. Love you.

Mama Wy, you left a void in my heart. I was blessed to have met you and spend many laughs along the way. I wish I would've met you sooner and had you around longer. Thank you for showing me unconditional acceptance. Thank you for always being real never holding back whether it was good or bad you were honest. You will be missed forever! You were one of a kind!
