Wendy Michelle Buckingham, age 58, of Cabot, Arkansas went to be with the Lord on Tuesday, April 11, 2023. She was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on February 18, 1965 to the late Joe Dan Ray III and Brenda Dean Spires.
Wendy is preceded in death by her parents; her daughter Stephanie Jacyn Waymack “Raymack”; and her beloved dog Gizmo. She leaves behind her children Levi Carter, Kerri Grimm (Matt), and Jordan Victory; grandchildren Aubrey Victory; aunts Nancy Hollman and Robin Scott; and countless friends and extended family.
Wendy loved to tell stories, and she had many to tell. The family would love to have any stories anyone would like to share. Please write them down to be saved in a memory book.
Wendy had a great many people in her life….enough for 2 different events! Her “Wild Bunch” will celebrate her at Hardrider Bar & Grill on Thursday, April 20, 2023 around 5 pm. For those who prefer a more quiet celebration, we will have food and fellowship on June 4, 2023 at Mountain Springs Baptist Church Community Center at 1pm. Everyone and anyone is welcome to either or both events. Please stay tuned to Wendy’s (and friends) Facebook for further details.

Hi Joyce
Words can’t express the way I feel.
Prayers for all the family and friends. God took an Angel home.
I’m so grateful she considered me a friend. The battle is over and the victory is won… may Wendy Ray’s spirit fly free.
I know we haven’t seen each other in person for many years but know that you touched my life in many ways. I enjoyed the time’s we spent together. When I really needed someone you were there in the most trying time of my life. I will never forget that and I will never forget you.
Wendy, I remember a conversation we had years ago about why God had called home people close to us and we agreed that He needed spiritual warriors in Heaven. Well all I can think is He decided He needed you to lead the way. I can’t help but picture you smiling with Jacy in your arms. You will be missed tremendously,my friend. Love you Wendy Michelle.
Wendy Ray and I hit it off from the beginning, instant friends. I miss her 😢 so much!!! She was at the top of my list of people that I could trust and cut up with. We’d laugh at the silliest of things 🤣.
Prayers for everyone 🙏🏻 whom has been blessed with knowing Wendy!!! ❤️♡❤️♡❤️ 🕊⚘️🕯
