    Sending the family my deepest condolences... I knew Matthew Kennedy as a young child and I know that his Mother played a HUGE role during his short life. After Matthew's passing, I would see Wanda randomly in El Paso...she always had a smile on her face and her words were very kind. After all that she had endured in her lifetime, she must have been a very strong woman full of faith to carry on her role in her family. David, may God give you strength in the days ahead. I'm so very sorry to hear of your Mother's passing.
