Hey Wanda,
Still think of you so often. I tell people you inspired me to be a better person, by watching you give & give with no expectation of what was in it for you - Just a loving, caring, selfless heart.
I hope both my fur babies are in heaven being loved on by you. They lived to be 16 & 17 yrs. old.
You were a true friend.
One of the best.
Miss you.

I thought of you on your birthday, as I do every year. I so often think of you when I hear stories of animal rescues, because I know you would be right there in the middle of it! I'm sure the animals in heaven are glad to have you to love on them!

Just recently found out Sidney is in kidney failure, & of course, thought about you & the fact that you would have been as upset as I am because she was like your own. You would have loved on her & taken care of her - & gone the extra mile like I saw you do more times than I can count, and I so appreciated it. Me and my girls miss you & I thought about you alot the past few days.

I know we mark your passing on the 21th but it was this morning at at 5:30 AM on the 20th that you last spoke to me. And all you ask me, were is Ozzie, to make sure I had not left him somewhere that he might fall. It has been a difficult year.
I relay miss you.

Wanda, you have been on my mind so much lately. I didn't get to see you as often as I liked, but I always knew you were only a phone call away when I needed you. We really miss you.

I work in the same TWC building as Wanda did and always spoke to her when we passed each other. 12/19 I gave her a bag of home made candy for Christmas and she smiled and thanked me with a sparkle in her eyes...Will see you again in Heaven Wanda and have some candy together :-) May God Bless each in your family...Proverbs 3:5-6

Wanda, you were a special light in this world of darkness, my life has truly been blessed just by knowing you.

You have been one of the biggest blessings in my life. You were always there for me with whatever I needed, often before I knew that I needed it; a true angel on earth. Even though heaven has called you home, somehow I know you will keep a close eye on us all. Avery, Molli, and I miss you and love you deeply.

We will miss Wanda for so many reasons. She was such a wealth of knowledge about so many things and especially my furry children. She was always my go to girl when my babies were not feeling good. She was loving and caring and will always have a special place in my heart.

You were my dogsitter for the past 14 years, but more than that, a
loyal, reliable, caring, giving friend, that I will miss for the rest of my life.
I was richly blessed to have known you, and will try to honor your memory by being more like you. I know heaven brightened up when you arrived, but my heart aches.

December 24, 2011

I miss you so deeply already. Thank you for being
such a good sister to me and such a special person.
It tears my heart to pieces to see you leave so soon.
Your loving brother.

So sad to lose such a good person too soon. There are many cats and dogs who have good ives now due to your efforts. I'm sure those that went before you greeted you at heaven's door, tails wagging and ready to jump all over you! God bless you and those missing you.
