Wanda had a way of bringing people together, always welcoming each with a hug. She always wore the most infectious smile that lit up every room. She enjoyed traveling with her daughters and husband, shopping, eating at Olive Garden, and making every Christmas unforgettable. Her family was her life; her legacy is that of unconditional love which she instilled in each member of the family. We are reminded daily when we look into our children’s eyes for you can see her and the love that she shared with us all. She was so proud of all her family and said so often!
