Wendy was preceded in death by her husband William Strickley; mother Dorothy Bitter, father George Bitter; sister Bonny Schellinger.

A huge that you to grandson Brandon Dumars for all the love and compassion you showed grandma with the many hours of sitting beside grandma when she was sick.  It truly meant the world to her.  Also, thank you to grandson Chris Strickley for the awesome visit you, your wife and kids had with grandma a few years ago.  That visit touched her heart and she talked about it often.

At the request of Wendy, a private family service has been held.
