Mandy Wagers

Mandy Sue Wagers, “Super Mandy,” age 4 of Worthville, Carroll County, KY, left her earthly body and gently passed into the arms of Jesus with loving family by her side, guided by angels on Thursday, June 6, 2019 at her home.  Mandy fought a 8 1/2 month battle with DIPG, an inoperable cancer in the brain stem before exchanging her broken body here on earth for one that is whole and perfect, complete with a set of wings.  Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.” (Mark 10:14)

Mandy was born on July 31, 2014 in La Grange, Oldham County, KY, and is the beloved daughter of Eugene Jr. and Amanda L. Smith Wagers, and the cherished baby sister to Loretta, Robin, Natasha and Eugene, III., all of Worthville, KY.  Her surviving grandparents are paternal grandmother, Alice Wagers of Worthville, KY, maternal grandparents, Susie and Charles Rummage of Mt. Washington, KY, and Jeff Smith of Louisville, KY, great maternal grandparents, Betty and Eddie Niedlow of Shepherdsville, KY,  and Loretta Smith of Louisville, KY.  She is also survived by a host of aunts, uncles and cousins.  Meeting her in heaven are her paternal grandfather, Eugene Wagers, Sr., paternal great grandparents, L.D. and Mary Burford, Ance and Mae Wagers, maternal great grandparents, Thomas Smith, Lucy and Cleon Jaggers, an aunt, great uncle and cousins.

Mandy is a miracle from the time she was created.  In the short time she was with us, Mandy loved her family, cats and princesses.  Her rambunctious nature captured the heart of so many friends and family and soon after falling ill, Mandy’s sweet face and personality quickly became the recipient of global prayers, thoughts and support.  Mandy brought together family, friends and community.  She will be deeply missed and never forgotten.
