Schwager, Deanna

Dear Eddie and Family,

We were saddened to hear of Deanna's passing and although she is in a better place; it's always difficult to let them go.

Our deepest sympathies go out to you and your Family during this difficult time.

Sincerely,
Ron and Marcia Collins

I was surprised to see a familiar name in the obits in our Cheyenne newspaper. My first thought was "no it surely isn't". But are reading the obit I was so sad to see it really was the Deanna whom I knew years ago. We lived in Lander from 1963 to 1972 when Deanna was working with Alma Nicol -- I helped out at the greenhouse when I was pregnant and Deanna used to bring me crackers to nibble on when I felt nauseated -- which was most of the time. I had so much fun with her -- she was always laughing. When we moved I later found that she was on Main St. and owned Wildwood. I often called and ordered flowers sent to friends who were still in Lander. And I've often thought of her and wondered if she still owned the shop.

My condolences to the entire family -- she was a special lady and I know she will be greatly missed.

Blessings to you all.

Eddie and Girls,

You know how much I loved your Mother and you know how much I missed her! She was my right hand for many years and All of us enjoyed working with her so much.

Much Love to All of you.

Alma and Family

So very sorry to hear of the passing of Deanna. She was a wonderful lady and always had such a gracious smile.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

To the family,

Having known Deanna for so many years, it is very sad to lose her. She was a beautiful, happy and caring lady, and I will miss her. She cooked the best fried chicken, too!

I remember many good times with all the Schwagers, Once we came down the Wood river valley, and Deanna might as well have been the guide! She was very knowledgable. I hope she can say hello to Molly B. for us!

She is still every ones friend! Sam

Dear Schwager Family,

Sadly, I did not know your mother, but I did know the Wildwood. My mother, Vera Hand, a teacher in Lander, and I never missed a chance to shop at the Wildwood. I have a beautiful green enamel music box from the Ww. ( gift from my mother) which I love, and my husband has a beautiful wooden pen stand/holder with an elk carved in the top from the Ww.

I loved your mother's store, and now I know why I was always able to find just the right gift there, through her influence.
