When I was a little girl my family lived next door to Wanda and her husband Al and their dog, Suzie. In 1969 we moved to Monroeville, IN, but our friendship continued and Wanda was a part of many family memories. She was such a sweet and delightful lady and we will all miss her.

I worked with Wanda at Byron health center years ago. Kept in touch with her until this year when my Christmas card came back but i never knew what happened to her after that. She was a sweetheart.
