Mrs. Wagner was a beloved wife, mom and mom mom. She gave her heart and love to everyone. She loved Christmas, she loved sitting on her porch swing in the warm sun reading her Bible, attending church, watching Blue Bloods, going on vacations and spending time with her sisters and friends. The love of her life were her 3 grandchildren, whom she often referred to as "her children". She would always think of others and give as much as she could. Mrs. Wagner will be dearly missed.
