Wanda enjoyed playing in the garden, spending time with husband, children and her dog B.B. girl, driving to Houma to visit her family, especially if she got to eat some seafood while she was down there. She was known by a lot of people from her time managing Burger King in Bogalusa. She was known to be a kind and humble person. She was a very loving wife, mother and grandmother who will be so missed.

Special thanks to Roshundra Goss Brumfield, R.N. and Mary Perkins, C.N.A with Traditions Hospice who were wonderful at providing comfort to her and her family during this process.

A celebration of her life was held at 10:00 AM on Saturday, July 10, 2021 at First Missionary Baptist Church in Varnado with Bro. Kelly Penton officiating the service.
