She is my best friends Mom, so needless to say I spent a lot of time with her & Elizabeth in my younger years. She was always happy, laughing & smiling. Wanda was always helping others in any way she could. I don't ever remember her saying anything harsh about anyone. Wanda was a great christian, leading others to God. She was like a second mother to me. I will always love & miss her. She was an angel on earth & now an angel in Heaven! Rest in peace Wanda!❤✝

Wanda was an amazing woman that loved to laugh and was so kind and generous. She was so proud of her family and bragged about them whenever she could. She was a dedicated 4-H advisor and supported and encouraged all of her kids. I feel very blessed to have known her.
