Wanda was a beautician owning and operating her own beauty salon for many years. She lived in the same neighborhood for over 50 years and was loved by all, young and old, being a second mother to many. She was lovingly called Mamaw, Aunt Wanda, and G-Ma by many of her loved ones. As one neighborhood young man affectionately stated, “Ms. Wanda was the driver when all the boys in the neighborhood had to go to the doctor to get stitches. “She loved sports, especially basketball and baseball having played basketball in high school. Her greatest joy was to attend any sports activity or game that her grandsons, Lee and Derik, were involved in from elementary school through college, trying to never miss a game. Wanda was a loving, sharing, generous lady who loved her family very much! She supported her family selflessly and always attended any event or function that any family members were involved in. As one family member said, “She was the Matriarch of the family; the glue that held us together.” Wanda was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Richard Vining; son, Michael Drewett; infant sister, Margie; sisters, Jessie Wooten, Dixie Wilson and Betty Seymore; and brother, Robert Lunsford. Survivors include her two grandsons, Michael Lee (Stacy) of Porter, Texas; Jon Derik Drewett (Samantha) of Marked Tree, Arkansas; her daughter-in-law, Pat Drewett of Sherrill, Arkansas; and her great-grandchildren, Lainey, Luke, Tatum, and Finn Drewett.
