Wendy (Troke) Smith

Wendy S. (Troke) Smith, age 63, of Winona, passed away on Thursday, December 2, 2021, at United Hospital in St. Paul, MN.

She was born on January 15, 1958, in Winona, to Donald “Dosh” and Joann (Kline) Troke, and was a graduate of Cotter High School and of the Winona Vo-Tech.

Wendy was employed as the receptionist and office manager with Dr. Casperson’s ophthalmology office in Winona for 25 years.

She will be remembered for her love of the outdoors where she enjoyed fishing with her grandfather and camping.  She especially looked forward to decorating and hosting the holidays for her family, watching movies on Lifetime, cheering for the Green Bay Packers, and she had a deep love for her pets, especially her dogs.
