Dear Danny ~
I send my heartfelt sympathies to you and your family, know how difficult it is to lose your mom. I miss mine so very much! I truly believe Aunt Wanda is watching over you now, maybe even found my momma and defintely know she's with Uncle George, holding his hand and smiling upon you and her beautiful grandchildren, so very proud of you! (maybe little Sandy is there with them, too!).
Many Blessings and Love ~ Nancy Rich (Krisilas)

Dear Dan and Barb - May God be with you through this difficult time. Wanda was so very proud of you and her grandchildren. She spoke of you constantly. You were lucky to have her, and she was lucky to have you. Her friends at St. Nicholas will hardly know what to do without her. The parish was blessed by her love and dedication. She was a wonderful friend and I will miss her greatly. May her memory be eternal!

To the many family and friends of Wanda...
We were sorry to hear of the loss of this lovely lady. We had the joy of meeting her thru mutual friends, church events and Philoptochos work. We will remember her as devoted, hard working and gracious. May God grant peace and rest to her soul.

We will truly miss our sweet wonderful Wanda. We admired her dedication to St. Nicholas and her devotion to her family and friends. Our prayers and thoughts are with Daniel, Barbara, Michael, Cathleen, all her cousins, family and friends during this very difficult time. May her memory be eternal. Love, Marina (Kalamaras) and Frank Kucera and Family

Our dynamic and growing family has always been supported by very strong weight bearing pillars. Today the foundation of our family quakes as we have lost one of those columns of strength. The Lord has called her to lift the burden of pain, sorrow and hardships she had to endure as one of one of those stalwart pillars.
Wanda will no longer be with us to celebrate Holidays and family milestones so we must continue to instead celebrate the support, friendship and Love she shared with all of us.
To Dan, Barb, Mickey and Casey and to my sisters, our many cousins I know you will miss her as I will.
May her memory be eternal.

Our deepest sympathy to Daniel, Barbara, Michael, Cathleen and all of Wanda's cousins. Although your hearts are heavy with the grief of loss, may the loving Lord offer you comfort and Wanda peace in His Kingdom. May she live in your hearts forever and her love surround you as always.

I have known Wanda for many years, having worked on many similar Philoptochos projects although in different parts of our great city. We were always happy to see each other whenever the opportunity arose.

May her memory be eternal.
