In loving memory, we celebrate the life of Cowanda "Wonnie" Odessa Broadway Joseph, who departed this world on September 25, 2026, at the age of 53. Born on May 8, 1973, in Coffeyville, Kansas, Wonnie touched the lives of many with her gentle spirit ans unwavering love.

Wonnie was the cherished daughter of the late William Bill Gregory and Mamie Broadway Rolland. She was preceded in death by her beloved son, Ketric Montrel Byrd, alongside her parents. Her memory is lovingly carried forward by her devoted spouse Michael Hudnall and her cherished daughter Laterria Tishaun Byrd. Her legacy lives on in her six precious grandchildren JohnTae, Marquis, Ja'Laylah, Ja'Kyra, Jacquez Jr, Ja'Niyah whi brought immense joy to her life.

She was a beloved sister to Doral Broadway Bey (Theresa) of Topeka Ks, James Charles Campbell (Jamie) of McAlester Ok, Tammy Terrel Broadway of Topeka Ks and Marvin Gregory of Kansas City Mo. Wonnie's family was her world, and she found immense joy in their presence. Her nurturing and warm smile were a testament to her unyielding love and devotion.

A proud graduate of Field Kindley High, Wonnie devoted her career to roles at Mosaic where she was known for her dedication and kindness. Outside of work, she found great pleasure in dancing, singing, and spending cherished moments with her family and friends, particularly her adored grandchildren.

Her family invites all who knew her to honor her memory by contributing to a charity of their choice. Wonnie's life was a celebration of love, laughter, and light, and she will be profoundly missed by all who had the privilege to know her.
