Online condolences may be offered at www.wichmannfargo.com It takes a long time to get used to the loss of someone we love. But it's important to remember that when people die, they leave something very special behind. They leave us memories of many things they said and did. And as long as we have those memories, the people we love will live forever in our hearts and minds.
