My condolences to the family of Wendy. I first met Wendy many years ago in the DNR Leadership Academy and even though we worked in different programs we always maintained a great friendship. She was a wonderful person and her passing makes me sad. I am sorry for your loss. Steve Ales

Aug.13 marks the passage of 4 years. It seems impossible. Three trees planted symbolizing the three sisters-in remembrance and to honor the youngest.
