I was very sorry to hear about Wendy. We were next door neighbours as children on Rutland Street and kept in touch throughout the years. Although she and I didn't see each other often, we always had a lot of shared memories and a good laugh whenever our paths crossed. I send my sincere condolences to all her family and friends, I will miss her. - Posted by: Pamela Bennett-Hoch () on: Dec 10, 2015

There are no words for how much you will be missed grandma! You always treated me as one of your own grandchildren and I always looked forward to sleepovers at grandma and grandads house! You were one of the most amazing women I had the pleasure of knowing and I am lucky to have had you in my life. You were taken much too soon but I just hope that wherever you are, you are no longer in pain and you're looking over all of us. RIP Wendy, you will be forever loved and forever missed!! Love you! xo - Posted by: Candace Hyde (Grand daughter by choice) on: Dec 04, 2015

Wendy was my earliest friend on Rutland Street. We kept in touch through my visits to Winnipeg when the 4 girlfriends would get together for a lunch or brunch. We four were Anne White johnson, Heather MacNeil Hamit, Wendy and I. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to visit her in the care home and to tell her that I loved her. Wendy was a kind and good person. I will miss her very much. - Posted by: Nancy taylor Hamilton (Childhood friend) on: Nov 29, 2015
