Fare Thee Well Wanda Rice

During the night last Friday, January 22, 2010, Wanda Rice passed away. Wanda was Lou Ann Allen's mother and grandmother to my children Tyler and Andrea as well as Great-Grandmother to Gabe, Chase, Coppelia, and Estee. She was also a good friend to all.

The following is copied from her obituary as published in the Houston Chronicle on 27Jan2010:
