Goodyear, AZ Saturday, January 18, 2025 Every memory I have of Aunt Wanda is beautiful. A few years back when we went to visit Aunt Wanda and Uncle Gary I had so much fun listening to Aunt Wanda tell the story of her and Gary’s beginning. Aunt Wanda was as real as it gets. From high school sweethearts to best friends for life. A life any one could be jealous of.I’m so happy that she was surrounded by her family during her last sunset.
