I want to send my deepest condolences to the family, especially, Mrs. Wendell. I felt so sad when I heard the news of the passing of Mr. Wendell yesterday. They are wonderful neighbors to me. We had many nice conversations over the past 8 years from my balcony. He always told me he was waiting for my flowers, some seasons I was way behind with the rest of the neighborhood. One time on my daily walk, he and his wife came to me and gave me their phone number in case I ever needed anything. Such wonderful, loving people. Always laughing, I loved his jovial laugh. I pray the Lord will be close to the entire family durning this sad time. I will keep you all in my prayers. Sincerely: Judy Decker
