Wanda was the proprietor of Stanley's, a tavern in the Back of the Yards area of Chicago, that her father started in 1924. Wanda shared friendship and homemade hot lunches with her many cherished customers.

In her younger years, Wanda was a graduate of the Vogue School of Fashion and owned a dress shop called "Joni's" in Chicago during the 1950's.

In her lifetime, Wanda was a member of the Legion of Young Polish Women, the Polish National Alliance and Pinczow, all Polish organizations that meant so much to her.

Wanda will be dearly missed by the many lives she touched.
