She was the most courteous, beautiful, selfless person I have ever known. I 'll never forget her persuasive attitude towards gear shifting a car like it was nothing. "Because shift-lifting is is more fun than automatic!.!" we rescued a dog together. But to me, she was beautiful.
She was had so many stories for me to look forward to. My personal favorite was the tiger story. I Loved her. I will never forget her her. She was my friend.

I'm going to miss my new friend Wanda who I used to speak to at QMC as we visited our spouses. She was there just about every day. She fell in love with my Grady and he loved her. She was a wonderful compassionate woman. Grady and I will miss her so so much. I am so sorry for your loss.
