Wendy Wright Beck, 75, of Temperance, Michigan passed away in the afternoon of August 19, 2025. She was born March 29, 1950 in Kendalville, Indiana to Frank M. Wright and Louise Willett Wright. A 1968 graduate of Grand Haven High School, Wendy went on to attend the University of Toledo, where she met her beloved husband Bill. She will be remembered for her quick wit and ability to light up a room, even if she was always a few minutes late. Wendy had an unwavering support for the Detroit Tigers and University of Michigan football. When possible, she wouldn't miss an inning or a game. She cared deeply for friends and family; and was always prepared to help those in need. A beloved wife, mother, sister, aunt, Pockie (grandmother), and caregiver. Wendy will be missed by all who knew her.

She is preceded in death by her husband, William K. Beck, and her brother Robert A. Wright. Wendy will be lovingly remembered by her children Bradley Beck, Andrew (Michelle) Beck, Michelle Beck; her siblings Linda (Robert) Burnley, Katherine (Garry) Newbury, Donald (Diane) Wright; her grandchildren Alexander (Carly) Beck, Katelyn (Ben) Hubler, Damon Beck, Jack Chernock, Jess Chernock, Evan Beck, Emily Clark, Brooke Clark, Jillian Beck, Reese Beck, Payton Clark; and her great-grandchildren Brooks Beck and Isabella Beck.
