  12. The loss of her and all that she represented in light, faith, and hope, will linger. (Jonathan possesses so many of her best qualities.) Love and peace to you today and in the days that come…in the months and the holidays and the seasons. Such a soul to walk this earth, makes one believe saints do exist, that God is among us, and the Spirit lives in our memories of her.

  13. I’m so sorry for your families loss. Wendy always had a smile on
    on her face and kind words to say
    when I say her. Praying for your family to find peace.

  15. Wendy, I never met you in the earthly realm, but your influence wasn’t constrained by that. Your friend Buffy has shared some of your spirit, faith and encouragement with me, even after your passing, and it has helped me and fed my soul greatly. I told Buffy that Matthew 25:21 came to mind for me about you: “His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!'” Sending much love to your family and friends who I’m sure miss you terribly.

  17. Kevin, your Perry Foam family wants you to know that just like any family we share in your times of joy and also in your grief. We will continue to pray that you and Jonathan receive the peace and warmth from God that only he can sufficiently provide in times like these. We also want you (and Jonathan) to know that you have been and continue to be a blessing to our organization.
    Rick

We spent some of the most special times of our lives with Wendy and she will always be remembered by us as a person who just beamed with God’s love. We love you guys. Love, The Daughertys (Mike, Sarina, Karah, Kristin and Collin)

  21. Kevin and Jonathan – You are both covered in my prayers. Wendy was a beautiful person inside and out. I loved getting to know all of you thru Kids Against Hunger and I often think of you all….and always smile. I know that you are all very much God loving people and I know Wendy was as well. Love to you both in the difficult days ahead, and may it bring you peace knowing that Wendy has no pain and loved you both so much.

May the loving arms of God surround you and Jonathan in your time of need. Praying for you.

  31. Kevin and Jonathan,
    We have been trying to find the right words to say, but we aren’t even sure there are right words. Please know we are praying for you two and know we are here for you if you need us. Wendy was a wonderfully friendly person who will be missed.

  32. Praying that you, Kevin, Jonathan, and family can feel comfort and strength through the prayers of all of us that love you.

    Sincerely, Donna Whitmer

  38. Kev, your call to me this morning was a shock to say the least. Bevan and I are so sorry and send you and Jonathan our love and prayers. Wendy was a great wife and mother and such a witness for our Lord. Blessings on you and Jonathan as you carry on her legacy.

  39. Remembering Wendy and her kind a loving heart. Nancy and I came by viewing but line out the door and could not stay as trip in am. Does not surprise me as so many lives touched by her. If you need a get away to spend time in creation and praying we would love to share cabin with you. Thankful she is with Jesus and free while also so sorry for your loss.

  40. John, Kristi, Bill, and Vicki…our thoughts and prayers are with you and I wish I could be there. Kevin and Jonathan, likewise. I have not even had the privilege to meet either of you. The Hoyt family was like a second family to me for many years growing up at Hope Church. While time and distance takes its toll, memories are still with me – as is Wendy’s senior picture that I still have tucked away with other Hope Church memories. I am just so sorry for your loss yet am so glad that we know where we will meet again after this earthly life. – Amy and Tim Martin

  41. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this very sad time. It is so hard to lose someone you all grew up with and loved so much. In later days all of your love will turn into wonderful memories that you will cherish until you once again meet her.

  42. Kevin, Jonathan, and the Klassen and Hoyt families, our thoughts and prayers are with you. Wendy’s love for Jesus lit up her life and we were all the better for it. Wendy, I love you and find comfort in knowing I will see you again. Until then …

  43. Kevin and Jonathan, I had Facebook turned off, so I just now read of your loss. I don’t have words to say how shocked and sorry I am to see my friend go away. Ruth and I both send our condolences…

  44. I am so very sorry to read of Wendy’s passing. May your family find peace and comfort from “the God of all comfort”(2 Corinthians 1:3&4) during this very difficult time. My deepest condolences
