Kenosha – Friends and family of the late Reverend Georgette Wonders held a memorial service in honor of Wonders at St. Mary’s Lutheran Church on 80th Street in Kenosha this week.
The beloved Kenosha reverend lost her life in a freak accident at a McDonald’s restaurant.
Many members of her church praised her and said the good she did in life continues even after her death.
“To hear that she is gone — I can`t wrap my mind around it,” Albert McCain, a member of Bradford Community Church in Kenosha, told FOX6 News.
“She was all about ‘kindness is contagious.’ It was such a beautiful thing because in the world today, you don`t find that with anyone,” McCain continued.
On Tuesday, April 8th, Wonders made a quick stop at a McDonald’s restaurant. In the drive-thru, Kenosha police say Wonders dropped her debit card.
She apparently opened the car door to grab it — and took her foot off the brake.
The vehicle inched forward toward the restaurant — pinning Wonders between the door and her car.
Wonders was in critical condition until she passed away on April 11th.
Wonders was part of the Unitarian Universalist church since 2002. She leaves behind a son and her loving wife, Hope.
