He was a founding member of the Rochester Woodworkers Society and sold his wood-turning pieces at Rochester art shows and craft shops. He was an avid backpacker, hiking the Swiss Alps in his 70s. Wendell instilled in his children the values of hard work, integrity, and love of family. His heart was full when his family was all in one place.”—Sharon Smith-Simmons, daughter
