I recall when that Airstream camper was parked in our driveway many years ago; Elizabeth, Miguel, & even 4-year-old Alicia used its back ladder to climb on our roof! Aunt Wanda & Uncle Cleo were so much fun & a delight to be around. I enjoyed visiting with them when I took my mom to visit them in Cottonwood & in Phoenix, too, & loved Wanda's stories of teaching ESL in South Korea. I will miss them both.

Aunt Wanda was always so much fun to be around. I can't begin to recall all the laughter and hijinks that she, Uncle Cleo, and my parents enjoyed. There is an Airstream camper in Heaven right now and she and Uncle Cleo are sitting by a campfire, laughing. Aunt Wanda lives a legacy of graciousness, warmth, and a wicked sense of humor to her nieces and nephews. We will always remember you and love you.
