Wendy Phillips Obituary


Born in Pasco on November 26, 1968. Our beloved Wendy went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Sunday, October 15 after a short battle with Cancer at the age of 37.

She was reunited in Heaven with her grandparents, L.W. and Dorothy Vail and Grant & Sue Stringham.

Wendy graduated from Pasco High School where she was ASB President and excelled at volleyball and basketball.

Wendy has enjoyed being in real estate since she was 20. Finding houses, fixing them up and helping others get into their dream home was her love...even if it meant forgoing her commission or profit to make it happen. Wendy loved Jesus and it showed in her actions and love for others.

Wendy is survived by her beloved daughter Brittany and parents Val and Mary Vail; fiance Dale Kathman; sisters and brothers-in-law Chris & Danny Green, Shanne & Steve Zweiner and Valerie & Kevin Mote; newphews and niece Denver, Hunter and Carter Green, Zak Zweiner and Connor & Natalie Mote; dearest of friends Jared Fielding along with numerous other relatives and friends.

An intimate family graveside service was held Saturday, October 21.

A celebration of Wendy's life will be held next Sunday, October 29th at Howard Amon Park at the far north end near the boat launch at 3:00pm.

The best thing in life is

Getting to know Jesus,

You can't do it alone

Until we meet again......Wendy

To Wendy's Family & My Pal Britt,

We were so saddened to hear last night about Wendy's passing. I would have loved to have been there for her service. She was like family to me, and always treated me as such. It is a comfort to know that she is at home with our Lord. If Britt ever needs a friend to talk to, please call. You are in our thought and prayers always.

Love, Rick and Carol
