When we moved to Paris in 1964 and I started school, Wanda was to me the example to follow. I remember she had a smile for me a lowly 8th grader! As the years went on I enjoyed knowing her on the adult level and we had kids that went to school together. She indeed was a wonderful person. Our prayers of comfort.
