Wendall has been the love of my life for 48 wonderful years. He was loving, thoughtful, kind and very caring. He always had a smile for you and a helping hand. Al, as I use to call him, loved his family, cars, car travel, Glenn Miller's music, woodworking, world and American history, archaeology, astronomy and space travel, laughter, a great steak and good conversation, and our four cat companions throughout the years: Ming Toy, Ginger, Goldie, Fudgie and his childhood dog Bunny. My dearest husband will be greatly missed.
