My wife Ellen and I mourn the loss of Wendy. When our son was hospitalized for three weeks, Wendy took care of our Daughter Rachel, almost every day, while we were at the hospital. She was such a wonderful caring person.

All of us at the Marriott Residence Inn in Deerfield where Wendy made her home for several months are extremely saddened by the passing of this great lady. She touched everyone's heart and lives with her cheerful smile and funny stores. I can still hear her voice as she would come to the front desk with Charlie. He would put his paws up on the desk as if checking in. Many guests commented on the two of them. You could never be depressed around Wendy - she would brighten your life with just a few words. Our deepest sympathy to her family. We will keep her and you in our thoughts and prayers. Her Residence Inn Friends
