Wanda Faye Moore , 63, of Kansas City, MO, passed away on Sunday February 5 th 2023 surrounded by family and loved ones. She was born on Sunday September 27 th , 1959 in Shreveport, Louisiana, to her parents John B. Tatum (proceeded her in death) and Elnora Black.  Wanda Faye had 10 siblings between her mother and father whom she loved dearly.

Wanda Faye loved the Lord and accepted Jesus into her life at a young age. She loved to listen to her gospel music and attend church on Sunday. She loved going to church services and learning more about her Lord and Savior and she truly realized how blessed she was and she did not have a problem telling you about the Lord and how good He was to her.

Wanda Faye loved to learn about new things and share that knowledge with others. She attended East High in Kansas City, MO and graduated from Grandview High School in Grandview, MO. She then went on to have multiple opportunities to continue learning by attending Penn Valley College and majoring in Business Administration. She excelled in customer service and spent most of her working years in that field.

Wanda was blessed with four beautiful children and six beautiful grandchildren who meant everything to her.  She loved to cook southern food when they would come over and they definitely enjoyed eating it - and she enjoyed getting her grandma time. She loved her family and spending time with her kids and grandkids was something she always looked forward to. Wanda Faye also loved to spend time at home and going on fun outings with her honey Tyrone.

Wanda Faye loved going places and looking good. You know when you saw her, she was going to look stylish and fly and have on the cutest boots and jewelry. She always kept up on her fashion, and her hair was always on point. She was a lover of all things fashion and she took great pride in her appearance. She enjoyed taking care of her plants and keeping her home tidy.

Wanda Faye loved her parents and siblings and always enjoyed going to visit them when she could. She loved to travel and see new places. Her laugh and her smile will be missed by all that were blessed to be a part of her life. We will always remember her for the fun times we shared with her, and the memories we have made. She is smiling down on us all now and is at peace.

Wanda joins her family members who preceded her in death: Father John B Tatum, Grandmother Louvilla Howard and her Step Father Carson Jones.
