I am shocked to read Wendy's passing. I went to elementary (we rode the bus to Sanbornton together for 5th and 6th grade) and junior high school with Wendy, saw her again in her roles in the law firms. I have nothing but fond memories. Her smile would light up anywhere she was. Deepest sympathies to her family.

How sad to hear about the loss of Wendy. I only knew her for a short time at Shaheen & Gordon but during that time I admired her thoughtfulness and kind nature. I will remember her when I see my lillies of the valley blooming each spring as the plants were given to me by Wendy. She was much too young to leave this world. May she be at peace.

My condolences to Wendy´s entire family. I thoroughly enjoyed working with her at Shaheen & Gordon. She was a wonderful caring person. I heard lots about her family from her, she especially talked about her granddaughter Cadence and I liked seeing Cadence at times at the office. May you all find peace in your memories of her.
