Wanda touched many people. May all that remember smile with the thoughts of her. She was always there for everyone. May she rest now in peace and her loved ones find comfort in her memory. I will remember.

Julie,
I remember going to Grandma Wanda for advice on boys. She was straight-forward and didn't have any issues telling us how it was and how it should be! I think we FINALLY listened to her and ended up with the men she was telling us about all those years ago. Now we have our own girls to give advice to and hopefully we too will be able to guide them like she did us. Love you speck!

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, and so glad that I had the privilege of knowing her. I always admired her zest for life - she loved Elvis, laughed with us and talked with us "college girls" about life when Linda and I were just starting out on our own. She always made me feel welcome and loved, and I was proud when she called me her "blonde" daughter. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
