We lost one of our own last week...

I will never forget Wendy

I won't either, helped me out a few times with appointments I was not supposed to drive home from and always brought me magazines for the retirement apts. my Mom lived in. Feel bad I did not go visit her. I knew she was lonely, but had too much crap going on at the time. F*ck. At least Mel has another friend up there and her Dad. If it is so.

Fair winds and following seas Wenchy.

She was always a good friend to me and I'll never forgot how she spoke of her friendship with Mel. Life had put some time between us but it was very nice to reconcile with her again. This has really touched me hard. :sad: May they both rest in peace, hopefully together

 

[RPMDAD]

So sorry to hear this also, we had pm'd each other on occasion.. My son is going to Salisbury, and she went there also. RIP Wenchy.

She shaved her head when I did Mel's/BSGal. Well had someone else do it, but nice show of support for someone going through chemo.

Sorry to hear about such a young one leaving us. May you rest in peace.

She shared that with me also

We are losing too many Forum and other friends and family lately. Bon Voyage Wenchy. May peace be with you forever. Save a place for the rest of us.

 

[aps45819]

Just saw this. I'll miss you Wendy, Rest in Peace

 

[sockgirl77]

You and me both, sister, as that was one of my first thoughts.

RIP Wenchy.

Same here. God, I miss Mel.

 

[Tilted]

I'm saddened to hear about this. Like many who have already posted, I didn't get to know her in the real world sense; but we did exchange a few PMs.

She came across as a sincerely compassionate person, and a spirited one as well. I wish the best for those who knew her best and who will miss her most deeply. May she be remembered fondly and joyfully, and often. And considering the many positive things people have had to say about her, here's to hoping that the thought of her inspires all of us to reflect in our own lives a bit more of the light that we've seen fit to praise in hers.

Rest well Wenchy.

I just saw this and am speechless. I never had the honor of meeting Wenchy in person but have enjoyed her posts & PMs & chats since I started on here. She was a wonderful, passionate woman who wasn't afraid to tell you exactly what she thought about anything and would discuss anything! I should have met her for that pedicure all those years ago -- I'm sure it would have been a blast!

I loved her. She had such a huge, huge heart and wasn't afraid to show it or to admit a fault or a mistake. She was real.

My prayers are going out to her family and friends and those whose life she touched in oh so many ways.

The Afterlife must be a pretty beautiful place with all of these wonderful people there...

This thread is an example of the powerful effect Wendy had (HAS) on people. She changed me, and she changed my life, in many, many ways. She captured my heart, and she took some of it with her.

I don't post on here a lot. I don't pm with people. I don't know anyone from here irl (that I know of), but I have been so sad since learning about her passing today. It is weird how you can like someone or be sad about their death when you wouldn't even know them if they were standing in front of you. I always liked Wenchy. She seemed like a straight shooter, but wasn't mean, as some people on here can be. Another weird thing is that a relative of mine, who doesn't even live in the country anymore apparently knew her very well and posted on her fb today about how sad she was to learn it today as well. Small world. RIP Wenchy.

YES. Looking forward to seeing her again. She'd better be ready for a time.

Wendy would now tell me, "Okay, enough of that, pull yourself up by your bootstraps and move on. Put your big boy pants on and deal with it. And get rid of some of this CLUTTER!" Okay, Honey, I'll do that.

 

[Toxick]

Whoa.. This is sad

My sincerest condolences to her friends here. And to her family if there are any reading.

 

[Larry Gude]

WTF happened???

Never met her but, Vrai always spoke highly of her.

She died unexpectedly in her apartment in Salisbury. She's in a MUCH better place, now.

Huh?
