Mrs.Stonebraker was my kindergarten teacher at Hoover School. That was I’m guessing 60 years ago. She was an amazing lady. I will never forget her. You have my deepest condolences and prayers.

Wanelle was not only our daycare provider. She was family. She took care of our children as she did her own. Even after our kids outgrew before/after school care, they still visited her. She sewed many beautiful doll clothes for our daughter. What a seamstress! She was caring, loving, compassionate, and her name comes up quite often to this day. Our condolences go out to her entire family. 🙏 Mark, Diane, Derek, and Kristin Kramer

Wanelle was my kindergarten teacher and also watched our daughter in her in home daycare. She was wonderful teacher and we loved having a loving, caring early childhood educator caring for our daughter. We were so thankful to have her. Sorry for the family 's loss of this wonderful woman. She lives on through all of you.
