He spent 57 years as a dealer in Las Vegas with 47 years at Caesar's Palace where he never met a stranger. He met, married and built a family with the love of his life, Carmen Moran Broussard. As a family, they traveled, enjoyed the outdoors in all seasons by skiing, running 5ks, golfing and camping. In the mid 1970's, he discovered a new passion- rock climbing. Through the sport, he met lifelong friends, mentored new climbers and experienced wonderful adventures. Wendell will be remembered by all who knew him as loyal, a straight shooter, generous in sharing his knowledge and passion as well as a wonderful storyteller.
