When her children were young, she dedicated herself to raising them in a warm, caring home. She would eventually work as the special education school bus driver for Crawford County for 17 years, work that she absolutely treasured. She was also a very active member of the Flat Rock United Methodist Church, and was a staple throughout her many years of attendance there. Quilting played an important part in Wanda’s life as well. Whether at home or in her quilting group, every stitch was made with the same love that lives on in her family’s hearts today, as it will for years to come.
