Wendy was the kindest, sweetest, caring. compassionate and loving person I have ever known in my life. She was my ESL and then Spanish teacher at TWU and became such a dear friend. I loved her so much, it hurts to know I will not see or speak to her again on this side of heaven.
Wendy is thoroughly missed by many
Rest in Jesus´s peace dearest, lovely Wendy

I cannot believe this. In total shock. Wendy was the sweetest, kindest, most thoughtfull classmate at PSC way back when..... Good times. We kept in touch sporadically since and always like it was yesterday that we were in high school. She was always very special to me and she always will be. Last year we were chatting and reminiscing of days past, hijinks we pulled, trips to McDonalds and occasionsl movie, and friends lost . Her last message to me was "not the end of the world yet. We still have a couple of good years ahead of us!".......
Alas, it was not to be.
Wendy was special. She will be truly missed.
My most sincere and heartfelt condolences to her family and relatives. May the pain and grief of her absence soon be overshadowed by the memories and reminiscings of when she was with us. She was a special person.

I remember one time being on the phone with Aunt Wendy, discussing a master´s assignment. Somehow, this talk drifted into life, its struggles, and deeper, more important topics. What started as a simple call turned into one of those rare, heart-to-heart talks that stay with you forever.
That moment has become a cherished memory, one I think about often, I was looking forward when we could have another conversation like that. Even though you´re no longer with us, Aunt Wendy, I hope you're in a better place.
You will be missed, of course. You're kindness and positivity left a lasting mark on all of us, and we´ll never forget how deeply you touched each of our lives. Love you always, Aunt Wendy.

Oscar and family, I'm so sorry for your loss. Losing a sister is a profound pain, and words can hardly capture the depth of your grief. She will be deeply missed, and may her memory bring you some comfort in the days ahead.

Tante Wendy was a sweet soul, always happy and always ready to help anyone.
My favorite memory of Tante Wendy is when she took me shopping for my first ever internship. I remember her helping me feel confident in my clothes when she noticed my spirits were low. Little did she know how much I needed that. She always had a way of making me feel safe and cared for.
The way she cared for others and carried herself will always stay with me, and I hope to instill this same kindness in my son someday.
Now you're gone, and all I have are voicemails to remember your sweet voice and pictures to cherish our memories. You are at peace now, and your memory will live on forever in our hearts. May you rest in peace. I love you, Tante Wendy, now and always.
