Richard, Kimberly, and family. Wendy will be missed by many. I remember the time she came up to take care of her mom, (Eva) and she was sitting on the porch having a break. Then all of a sudden and family of skunks went by. She couldn't wait to get back into her mom's place quick enough. If I'm not mistaken, she posted it on Facebook. Wendy, I will miss your smile and our talks. To Rick and the rest of the family. Your memories of Wendy will live on in your hearts forever.

I am so sorry to read of Wendy’s passing. I grew up spending a lot of time with the Harding’s with my mother. Eva, “Father”, and my mother were best of friends. Wendy was my mother’s godchild & I know Kay will welcome Wendy with open arms. Rest in Peace Wendy ?
