Wendy Joyce Savage

Wendy Joyce “Stormie” Savage, born June 19, 1972, in Austin, Texas, was a woman of deep intellect, creativity, and unwavering determination. Known affectionately as “Stormie” Wendy lived a life marked by curiosity, service, and love for her family and community.

Wendy graduated from Midland High School and continued her education at Midland College. Her lifelong love of learning fueled an impressive career and led to countless accomplishments and professional certifications over the years.

Whatever Wendy pursued, she did so with passion and excellence.
