Wendy went to East high School, I have fond memories of her, we worked McDonalds, we went dance clubs, loved to dance. She taught me how to do the School song by twirling the flags for band. During halftime, I was their for her when she had Carissa and keep her company when she was a new mother, run errands for her. Visit her when she was married and other children lived close to me. At different times I would come to osf medical group when I needed to see when I sick. I will miss her, but I know she is with Heavenly father, Jesus christ.

Carissa and family…..I am so so sad to hear of your mother's death. You all are in my prayers. I just can't believe what all she went through with the death of DJ and was so strong through it all. Please let me know if you need anything my darling Carissa….I'm thinking of you all. I know you won't recognize the name under which I write this but it is my mom's account as I left Roscoe and moved back to Peoria a year ago. All my love to you all…..Katie Baietto
