Wanda’s contagious laughter will be missed by her husband, Robert Louis Buckner, brother, Talbert (Patty) Malone, her children, Robert (Marilyn) Buckner, Brenda (Greg) Beckstrom, and David (Nita) Buckner, and many grandchildren and great grandchildren. Wanda was born on March 1,1933 in West Fork, Arkansas. She married Robert Louis Buckner on January 28, 1951 and together they raised three children. On July 30, 1966, the Buckner family joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Wanda soon became an expert in genealogy. She dedicated her life to the cause, spending thousands of hours researching hers and others’ family trees. We can only imagine the concourses of angels that have anxiously awaited her return to thank Wanda for her life-long service. Wanda was proud to be a ‘tough old bird’, and a ‘wise old woman of the mountain.’ She loved animals and they loved her. From giving CPR to squirrels, to saving abandoned cats and dogs, we are certain she will be surrounded in heaven by the animals she saved and loved.
