Jefferey, we are deeply saddened to learn of your mother's illness and passing. You are a fine young man and will, I know, continue your parents' legacy and make this old world a brighter place. We wanted to be with you today, but our Boston terrier has been very ill; we thought we would lose him over the weekend.

My grandfather worked at the City with Wanda until he retired in 1985. I still remember her sweet smile. I often thought of her over the years. She was a wonderful person. Prayers to her family during this time.

Sherri & Tony Gay

Jeff, Tony and I are so sorry for your loss. We didn't even know she had been sick. Since we moved back to FL, we've been out of the loop. We loved both of your parents and enjoyed getting together with them and Konni at Farm Boys on Friday nights or chit chatting with them on the side of the road when we went walking. Wanda is now pain free and healthy and whole with the man she loved and missed so dearly and with Jim Smith as well as her family who went before her. I can't wait to see her again one day soon. We are praying for you, for God to comfort you and give you peace. Love you, Jeff.

Aunt Wanda,
You were a huge part of my life, all of my childhood memories include you, uncle Jerry and jay bird. I'm so thankful for every trip to the rivers, visiting y'all's house, camping and being made to feel loved as more than a nephew. The world was a better place with you in it.
Thank you for every memory you left with me! We love you!
