Aunt Wanda was always a kind and wonderful Aunt. Very soft spoken with an uplifting nature. I will miss her terribly.
Condolences to her only son Eddie and his family whom Aunt Wanda was extremely proud of and bragged about constantly.
Aunt Wanda, I will miss you but I know I will see you, Daddy, Mom, Aunt Jean, Uncle Frank, Granny, and Grandpa Moretz again. What a gathering you all must have had when you arrived in heaven! God Bless ❤️
Wanda was a life long bowling buddy and friend. She and that warm smile will be deeply missed.
