I was so sorry to learn the news of Wendy's passing. Wendy was my very good friend when we were in 4th and 5th grades. When my family moved from Maryland to Tennessee, when I was in the 6th grade, Wendy's parents allowed her to come with me for a week. I remember being so sad when she went back home. Although we lost touch, it's clear that she remained a great friend to so many people through the years and was so loved.
