Her warmth, laughter, and unwavering spirit will be deeply missed by all who knew her. A graveside service will be held at 1:00 PM on Thursday, October 3, at Oak Grove Memorial Garden. Family and friends are invited to gather to celebrate Wandas life and share their cherished memories. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations to your favorite charity or to First Methodist Church of Irving, a place that held special meaning for Wanda.
