Gwenda worked at Sunbelt Environmental as the human resource and payroll secretary. Gwenda enjoyed life.

She enjoyed little things like her tumbler filled with diet Dr. Pepper, M&M's, a porkchop from Colton's Steakhouse, her house robe, playing Solitaire, a word game on her phone, and her beloved dog, Sasha. Gwenda was fun to be around and had a contagious laugh. She loved her family and enjoyed doing anything with them. She was always giving them hugs and talking to them. Gwenda will be missed by many.
