COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (March 3, 2023) – USA Volleyball was saddened to learn of the death of Wendy Sapp on February 28. We send our deepest condolences to her family and friends.

Wendy Sapp was the longtime office manager for the USA Volleyball Rocky Mountain Region. She is survived by her husband Glenn, the former RMR commissioner, and her daughters Jasmine (Jazzy) and Nikky, who both played volleyball collegiately. Jazzy also worked for USA Volleyball.

A note on the RMR website reads “Wendy was ‘the heart and soul’ of the RMR for some 20 years. Along with her ‘Commissioner Husband’ Glenn, she built many of the programs that are central to RMR operations, including our ever-popular RMR-Showdown. Wendy’s hard work and tireless dedication helped make the RMR what it is today!”

A “Celebration Service” will be held Saturday March 18, 2-5 p.m., at The Island in Aurora, Colorado.
