Our condolences to all of you during this difficult time.

Wendy was someone I looked up to a lot growing up. I loved her sunny disposition, her kind-of tomboyish ways and the fact that she was the only girl I knew that worked at the rink. There were several of us that looked up to her on the ice as well.

Holding all of you in our thoughts and prayers.
