Our hearts are so saddened....but thankfully we have wonderful memories of Uncle Wendy. Our biggest memories were those of going to the lake. He was so patient taking us out in the boat, teaching the kids how to water ski. And he was the life of the party at our kids' weddings in Florida! We loved him....he left a big impression in our hearts.
