Thinking of you all during this sad time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
I have so many great memories of the short time I spent living with Wanda and Deb when I first moved to Lincoln. Wanda was a very special and luminous person. She will be greatly missed.
My thoughts and prayers go out to all of you!
Dan and I met Wanda back in 1968 when we attended the Grandview Nazarene Church with her. We lost touch with her after we moved away, but she’s always kept a special place in our hearts over the years. We are so sorry we weren’t able to reconnect with her before her death – our hearts hurt for her family. Wanda was one very special lady, and we will definitely look for her when it is our turn to go home!
