June 30, 1956 - August 21, 2025

Wendy Ellen Denton, born June 30, 1956, entered into eternal rest on August 21, 2025, at the age of 69. She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend whose presence brought joy, laughter, and comfort to all who knew her.

Wendy is survived by her devoted husband of 11 years, Steve Denton, who cherished every moment they shared together. She is also survived by her two sons, Chris Ahne and Drew Grant, and her two loving daughters-in-law, Jennifer Ahne and Leanne Grant. She was a proud and loving ''Nonnie.'' Through Chris and Jennifer, Wendy is survived by Kate and Sam Ahne. Through Drew and Leanne, she is survived by Konner, Emily, Rayden, Alicia, and Jaxson Grant.

Wendy was also blessed to share her life with Steve's children, Xac Denton and Ashley Cohn, along with Ashley's husband, Mike Cohn. Her heart grew even fuller with the addition of Ashley and Mike's children, Quinton and Margo, whom she dearly loved. She is further survived by her siblings: Lee Peterson (Fort Wayne, IN), Pat Rising (Elk Grove Village, IL), Loni Milz (Belle Plaine, MN), and Paul Rifenberg (Niles, MI) who will cherish her memory and the bond they shared.

Wendy was preceded in death by her parents James Rushing and Doris (Mondroski) Rushing and brothers Richard (Bud) Rushing and Jim Rushing, who welcomed her into eternal rest.

Her family was her greatest joy, and she poured her love, wisdom, and gentle spirit into each child and grandchild, creating treasured memories that will carry on for generations. Wendy's life was a testament to kindness, love, and devotion to her family that was grounded in her faith in her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She will be remembered for her warm smile, her generous heart, and the way she made everyone feel valued and cared for. Her legacy lives on in her husband, children, stepchildren, daughters-in-law, son-in-law, grandchildren, brothers, and sister, who will honor her memory by living with the same love and grace she shared with them.
