I worked at St Louis County Water Company with Wendy for 10 years. I did not know of her passing or Bruce's.  I am so sorry she was always so full of life. I have to say she was so proud of you Amy and your girls. You gave her so much joy. I loved the pictures and especially of her with her beloved dogs. They had good mom also. God bless your family Amy I'll say a prayer for all if you. She will be missed by many.

Still remember years of working together and laughing through lunch hour. Miss Wendy's friendship.

Wendy and I worked together at Monsanto for a lot of years.  She was smart, helpful, friendly - she was always smiling and laughing - we both retired from Monsanto at the same time - Friday, November 9, 2015.   I still can't get over that my co-worker and friend is now with the Lord.   I send my condolences to her family - we were all going to be in a presentation together; no one had the guts run the power point presentation (as IT was not available) - but of course, with all of her boldness, she volunteered to do it.   She didn't care if the presentation messed up or not, she would take care of it.  I deeply reqret not seeing her again after we left Monsanto.   Wendy - you are so sweet and will truly be missed by your family and all of your co-workers at Monsanto.   I know you are in heaven - love ya girl!   Chris  Does anyone know what Wendy passed away of - Take care everyone!

Wendy was a dear friend who shared lunch, laughs and dreams with me when we both worked at Monsanto. I remember bringing Emily to daycare until suddenly she was  grown up.

I have missed Wendy's friendship since I moved to South Carolina.  I am sorry I  could not be there for her memorial service.  My sympathies to Amy and her family on the loss of a caring and fine woman.
Sincerely,
Joan Lemen


Amy & family, I can’t believe you have to go through this again. My heart goes out to all of you. Your mom and dad were our friends for many years as you know. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that they are both at peace now. Thank you for being such a good daughter to the both of them. I know they appreciated you. I also want to thank you for sharing your faith with them. They are smiling down on you.
Love,
Randy & Cheryl

Wendy and Bruce owned a paint store in Arnold and I managed another store in the same strip mall. We always shared experiences and I could call on them anytime. 
Our husbands coached our daughters softball team so we spent many hours laughing and cheering together. 
Several years later we ran into each other at the bowling center and it was like we picked up where we left off. Loved Wendy’s big smile and love for her family and friends. She will be missed but never forgotten. 

Wendy was my work buddy for many years,  She was always taking good care of us and will be greatly missed!

Wendy was such a funny pleasant person to be around. I used to sit with her & talk to her while Emily & Ricky bowled gateways & travel league. I lost touch with her when Emily & Ricky graduated unfortunately. She will be missed by so many 😢 RIP Wendy I love you 💕 

My deepest sympathies, I bowled and played softball for many years with and against Wendy.
Some of my fondest memories were during those years, she was one of kind and always fun to be around.
Hugs and prayers for comfort for those she left behind.



RIP Wendy.  I recall some memories of you going on bowling tournaments  with me and the fun times we had especially at the Mexican eatery (can't print the conversation) but it was quite interesting.  Condolences to your family.  You will be missed.

So sorry - seems such a short time ago Wendy was a member of our local bowling association championship team!
Prayers to Amy and family!
