When I look at Wendell's picture above, although I'm sad that he has passed, I'm also at peace with it since his always genuine smile (like above and the last one I saw when Chris Stevenson visited him in Houston this Spring) just resonates with my heart and so many great memories we'll cherish.
Again, it's sad, but there's also so much JOY knowing he was a follower/believer; and, God, as always, kept His promise -- Wendell's now with family, friends and ALL of His Holy Saints rejoicing in Eternal Life!
God Bless all of you and be with you this weekend when you say "Goodbye" with all who loved your great husband and father.
