I miss you every day Wendy. You were a great cousin a loving mother and very empathetic person. Even 8 years after your passing I still can't believe it. Alot of my childhood memories are filled with you in them. From times of you babysitting us or us staying the night with you or me babysitting for you over the summer and then the many memories we made together as adults and having fun. I lost a dear friend today and it made me think of you and i just wanted to let you know that even though you have been gone from this world 8 years now, you are never forgotten and never far from my mind. We all miss you dearly. I love you cousin always and forever.
