I was fortunate to have known Wendy for many years – first as a friend and then as a co-worker at Susquehanna Bank.  We not only shared a friendship but also a love for books.  Reading was a shared passion & Wendy was generous in sharing her “library” with me over the last several years.  I will miss my friend and her wonderful personality.  My thoughts & prayers are with her family ~ Lori Becker
