Wilda Wackowski was an outstanding woman who made the world a brighter place for her family and friends. She was a very uplifting presence. She was a tireless worker and a selfless helper who shared her humor and optimism for life. I have not seen Wilda in years but I will always remember her kindness to me. Knowing her enriched my life. My sincere condolences to Wilda's large circle of friends and family, especially Sheri and Debbie. The world has lost one of its brightest candles. Alyce Mart-Webb
