I did not know Wanda but after having spoken to George this morning, I am sorry that I never got to meet her. To have earned the respect and friendship that she did from him and others, she must have been an amazing person. It is my loss to have never been blessed with being able to know her. My condolences and best wishes go out to all those who knew and loved Wanda and who will miss her dearly.

I never did get to know her myself, nonetheless, it is never good to hear news like this. :diver: All of us are like a family even if some of us (like me) disappear from time-to-time. It hits us all hard. I do certainly wish to offer my own condolences to her family and closest friends.

She dove with me on my first dive in Dutch Springs.
I still see her coming into the room with her hair braided, sitting down quietly. And I do see her looking really hot, coming into the club. She is a beautiful woman and great person.
I cannot believe that she is not with us anymore.

Wanda, I am glad I had a chance to meet you.

Sad news indeed. My sincerest condolences for her loved ones....everything that people have said about her definitely makes her sound like a heck of a gal.

For those of us who don't know all the members by given names, could someone let us know her screen name? Otherwise, those who have never met her don't have any way to fully relate to who is being mourned...
