Wendy was an amazing wife and mother who loved her three children so much. She had a gift for connecting with people, and those who knew her could feel her selfless outpouring of love and acceptance.
She had a magnetic presence and truly was a beautiful soul. Her strength, kindness, empathy, wisdom and humor lifted so many….and she will be greatly missed.
