I remember going to my 1st concert ever with Wanda & her folks. It was for her birthday, and we saw Paul Revere and the Raiders in Hutchinson. It was so much fun! Had many school memories of her, but lost touch after high school when I went off to college.

To her family my sincere condolences! She was always such a sweet person. I will miss her!

I had such a fun and nice visit on the phone in April with Wanda. We didn't see or talk nearly as much as we should have since I moved to Michigan but when we did it was as if the miles and time melted away. When I go to the car shows I and see a Gremlin, I always have to think of her. Love you my friend and old neighbor and know you didn't want to go but are now resting in peace. My heartfelt sympathy to her loving family.
