Mystery solved. I uninstalled the
Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter and
Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter # 2
in the device manager and restarted the computer.
The error message about Intel My WiFi Technology Adapter not found no longer happens during sleep.

Additional information...
I usually uncheck the power management boxes but for the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter and Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter # 2, you cannot uncheck these boxes.
