Dessie's sister, Olive, died three weeks after giving birth to a baby girl. Dessie and Bert raised this little niece, Wanda Fritzsche-Winter as their daughter. Bert and Dessie lived just a few miles from Wanda's biological father and two sisters, so she got to grow-up with them close by. Wanda has always considered Bert and Dessie to be her "Mom" and "Dad".
