There is far more to this Universe than we can possibly know at our human level of being. Life is eternal because that which God creates can never be destroyed. We affirm that you and your family are surrounded by the essence of Spirit (love, light and life) as you release Wendy into the care of GOD.

"Those we love don't go away, They walk beside us every day, Unseen, unheard, but always near, Still loved, still missed and very dear." Words cannot express how sorry we are to hear of your loss. Our hearts and thoughts go out to Wendy and her family especially her dear husband and children.

Wendy and I worked at Linens N Things together for 2 years. Wendy was always cheerful, forever loving a good joke and ever ready to help in any way she was able. We had good times and a great working relationship....I will always remember her laughter and and her positive attitude towards life and living life to the fullest. She will be remembered.

Uwe and I would like to say how terribly sorry we are Bob for you and all the family. I am so thankful that Wendy and I met all those years ago back in good old Sutton, Quebec. We sure did have alot of fun adventures together. I will never forget frolicking in the waves down in Old Orchard Beach, or playing pool at the Abercorn House and all the fun times dancing and singing. Our paths went in different directions for a while but we found each other again, and it was like no time had passed at all. Wendy and I have always felt like sisters we could talk about anything. I have never met anyone so selfless and brave. Wendy you know how very much you mean to me. We will always have our happy memories. My dearest friend rest easy. I love you and miss you with my whole heart. Until we meet again. Your old friend and sister Cathy from Sutton Hugs and kisses..
