To Wendy's family
I'm so sorry for your loss. Wendy's dedication was a true inspiration to me and I will never forget her guidance and most importantly her friendship. She was a valuable leader on many industry committees and boards.
She will be missed dearly.

We are saddened by the news of Wendy's passing. Rob our thoughts and prayers are with you and both sets of families. Family events just won't be the same Her un mistakable laugh will not be forgotten. I'm guessing Dot needed someone to toss her ball more often and the angels were tired. So God called Wendy as He knew she would welcome the chance to play fetch with her buddy.

Sending you a hug for now, until we can do it in person

Rob, Family, Friends and Associates ... it is with heavy heart to learn of Wendy's passing. She was a diplomatic, professional and caring person, a true asset to the beef cattle industry, where I met her many many years ago. Rest in peace Wendy, you will be missed tremendously.
