Wanda and her husband Carl lived in Edinburg, IL where she was employed by the State of Illinois as a state operator until her retirement in approximately 1986. They later moved here and made Willow Springs their home for approximately the last 23 years. Wanda liked to attend church and when she did, she would attend the First General Baptist Church. She had many enjoyments in her life. She liked being outdoors where she could fish, swim, and go camping. However, she especially loved to dance, but nothing gave her more joy than spending time with her family. She will be greatly missed by her family and all who knew her.
Wanda is preceded in death by her parents and by her infant grandson Douglas Brandon Rush.
She is survived by her husband Carl of Willow Springs; her children: Donna Rush and her husband David of Byron, IL; David Hayes and his wife Susan; Dee McClure and her husband Todd; Darrell Hayes and his wife Terri all of Taylorville, IL; and Dale Hayes of Willow Springs. She is further survived by her brothers Darcy Roberts and his wife Renee of Vincennes, IN; and Derek Roberts of Marion, OH. Twelve grandchildren and four great grandchildren as well as numerous nieces and nephews also survive.
A family night/visitation for Wanda will be held Wednesday, April 20th, from 6pm-8pm at the Willow Funeral Home. Funeral services will follow on Thursday, April 21st at 11am at the Willow Funeral Home with interment at the Willow Springs City Cemetery.

Growing up, Carl attended the Kincaid School. He married Wanda June Davis on April 29, 1952. While living in Illinois, Carl was a union electrician with IBEW for 38 years. Carl enlisted in the U.S. Navy in 1949 and proudly served his country for 4 years. In 1994 Carl and June moved to a farm near Willow Springs. Carl liked to “tinker” around the farm, and he liked to collect guns. Most of his time was spent showing cattle with his son, Dale. He also treasured the time he spent with his granddaughter, Zowie. He will be greatly missed by his family, his friends, and all who knew him.
