Wanda Jean McBride
April 20, 1964 - August 29, 2018
At the too young age of fifty-four, Wanda Jean McBride, Child of the Covenant, passed away after a fierce battle with glioblastoma on Wednesday, August 29. Born to Allie Mae Bush McBride and Milton McBride, Sr. at Havana, FL on April 20, 1964, Wanda attended public schools in Havana and ultimately earned a GED diploma. This was one of her proudest accomplishments. Wanda is predeceased by her beloved mother and survived by her father and her brother, Milton McBride, Jr., both of whom devotedly cared for her during her illness. Additional survivors include sisters Joyce McBride and Alesha McBride, brother Mark Anthony McBride and numerous aunts, cousins, nephews, and nieces.
She leaves behind a multitude of loving friends who came to know and admire Wanda through her long service as caterer at Faith Presbyterian Church Tallahassee, where often as many as 150-200 church members and friends would wait in long lines to enjoy fellowship over her Wednesday night dinners. Wanda also served many families as "nanny" to their children and grandchildren. One of her favorite outings with children was to take them to the library to check out and then read books. "Miss Wanda" adored and was adored by her "babies" and she became a cherished member of many Tallahassee families.
The void created by Wanda's death is deep and wide, but she knew how much she was loved, admired, and respected.
In the period of her illness, Wanda received amazing and devoted care from Archbold Memorial Hospital (Thomasville), Tallahassee Memorial Health Care, Big Bend Hospice, River Chase Health and Rehabilitation Center (Quincy), Chuck Mitchell and Sarah, and her fellow members at Faith Presbyterian Church.
Viewing and family visitation will occur at Bevis Funeral Home of Tallahassee from 6-8 p.m. Wednesday, September 5, with a memorial service at Faith Presbyterian Church at 4 p.m. Thursday, September 6. A reception will follow at Faith Presbyterian Fellowship Hall.
Contributions honoring Wanda McBride may be made by check payable to Faith Presbyterian Church memo line "Sealey Elementary School Partnership."
Breanna Green and Rocky Bevis of Bevis Funeral Home are assisting the family with their arrangements.
