Dear Jimmy, Vicki, Wonny, Kristi, and Family,
I express my deepest condolences for the loss of such a wonderful wife and devoted mother. Wanda was such a happy go lucky person and I shall always remember the happy times we had together when we were kids. I am sure that my Mom and Dad were waiting for her with open arms.
Love and God Bless,
Dotty
