Wanda L. Kraft, age 79, of Ottawa, Kan., passed away Friday, June 19, 2009, at the Richmond Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center in Richmond, Kan.

She was born March 13, 1930 in Stilwell, Kan., to Albert W. and Ruth L. (Miller) Odor.

(Wassell) Yockey who raised her and later adopted her. She continued her education in Kansas City for awhile and then they eventually moved to the northeast edge of Ottawa where they began farming. She helped on the farm by feeding the animals, milking cows and doing various chores while also going to school every day. She also had horses which she loved riding.
