Rest in peace, Wanda, the self-proclaimed witch. You were a welcoming and wonderful neighbor since we moved here 28 years ago. Our encounters always left us amused. Our sincere condolences to Wayne and your children as they adjust to life without you. Please let us know, Wayne, if there´s anything we can do for you. Sincerely, Jim and Carol Moffatt

She was my aunt on my mothers side. She was my mother's baby sister. Thanks to all her family for caring and loving her so well.
