I remember as a little girl how much I would love being able to try all the yummy tortes she used to make. I will also remember how she had such a wonderful laugh and I alway thought it was so neat how she called Ursula (oozala), at least that is how I heard it as a child. She had the most infectious smile and laugh and will always have fond memories of the Wedmans. They are all together now with the Beyaks. My thoughts and prayers are with you all through this very difficult time. - Posted by: Donna Beyak Passante (friend and neighbor) on: Dec 10, 2013
