Wanda was my bride's maid in 1954 and she square danced with us for a number of years. I tried to keep in contact with throughout her life. Love her family and am so sorry for your loss. She has been on my mind and I tried calling Viola to see why this was going on but didn't get an answer and called your Aunt Betty and got more than I could wished for. Viola I regret you having those challenges to face. Jane I am very happy you have found new happiness and wish you the best. I will try to attend the funeral but being handicapped it will depend on the weather,
