I am so very sad to hear of Wissie's passing. I have so many fond memories and most recently over the past few years getting her sweet texts with flower emoji's just to say hi. I know she will be missed by so many. My deepest sympathies to Mary, Nick, Kelly and the Marger family. RIP dear, sweet Wissie!! Becky
