Obituary for Wendy Michaeline Miller (née Oligschlaeger)
Wendy Michaeline Miller (née Oligschlaeger), 67, passed away peacefully on August 29, 2024, in Phoenix, AZ, with her husband, Todd, by her side. Born on January 14, 1957, in Phoenix, Wendy was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend who touched the lives of many with her kindness and faith. She was diagnosed in November 2023 with ALS.
Wendy graduated from Bourgade High School. She went on to graduate in 1979 with a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature from Gonzaga University, where she made dear lifelong friends. Her love for literature and learning was evident throughout her life.
She married her husband, Todd, in 1983. She homeschooled her five children and was a devout Catholic, active in her parish of St. Gregory's for decades.
Wendy is survived by her beloved husband, Todd Miller; her children, Mitch Miller, Peter Miller, Lucy Miller, Emily Miller, and Frederick Miller; her grandchildren, Mikaela, Max, Tilly, and Margaret; and her foster daughters, Phan and Yen, and their families. She is also remembered by her sisters, Cecelia, Paula, Lynn, Heidi, and Iris, and her brothers, Mark, Eric, and Keith, and many nieces, nephews, in-laws, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. She was predeceased by her father, Fritz; her mother, Amelia; and her sister, Denise.
Details regarding the ceremony and how to express condolences will be shared with friends and family shortly.
Wendy's memory will forever remain in the hearts of those she touched with her love and dedication. May she rest in peace.
In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation in her honor to ALS AZ, a non-profit organization that greatly assisted in her care in the last year of her life.
