Wendylynn Marie (Muske) Smith, born Oct. 10, 1964, passed out of her bodily frame and into the place prepared by her Redeemer in Glory, on Jan. 10, 2025. Though her body rests in the grave it awaits the Resurrection of Life on the Last Day. Wendy was a devoted wife of almost 40 years; and the mother, homeschool teacher, guide, supporter, and friend of her nine children. Outside of her family, Wendy was also a mentor, teacher, friend, and godly example of the grace of Christ to many.
She is survived by her husband, Randy; her nine children, Anastasia, Nathanael (Elizabeth), Charissa, Rebekah, Benjamin (Abigayl), Andrew (Madeline), Timothy, Sophia and Sarah; her grandchildren, Robert, Beatrice, Julia, Hezekiah, Matthew and Jemima; her parents, James and Carolyn Muske; her brothers, Curt (Diana), Randy (Anne), and Kevan; and her nephews, Ryan, Adam (Isabel), and Sam.
Wendy “fought the good fight ... finished the race ... kept the faith ...” She can now repeat after Paul in the remainder of this passage, “Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing.” (2 Timothy 4:7-8 NKJV)
