Meet the Neighbors: Michael + Wendy on Tangelo Place
A few years ago, Michael and Wendy Brown were enjoying RV life. They loved traveling around to warmer climates and enjoying the sunshine. During one of their road trips, they made a stop at Encanterra® to visit their good friends, Phil and Donna Johnson, knowing immediately that it was a place they could see themselves enjoying. Shea Preferred Realty Group assisted them in finding the perfect resale home on Tangelo Place!
Originally from Camas, Washington, Michael and Wendy’s love story started when they were both attending the University of Oregon. Michael had been working at a local Safeway grocery store for a few months when Wendy started working there as well— and Michael noticed her right away. Michael loved it when Wendy would bring in Hello Dolly cookies to work. Soon they started dating and the rest of their love story is history! This August, they will be celebrating their 37th wedding anniversary.
Michael and Wendy have four grown children: three sons and one daughter. Their daughter is planning a beautiful wedding to be held this March back in Seattle. They love spending time with their children and visit them several times a year. In their spare time they love to travel and take cruises; one of their most memorable trips was a cruise to the Caribbean. Michael’s career with Safeway did not end quickly— he recently retired with them after 43 years of service. Wendy has also retired from operating a successful UPS store in Battle Ground, Washington.
Now that retirement is finally settling in, you can find them anywhere that involves the outdoors. They love to walk each day and are active members of the Hiking and Pickle ball club. Encanterra® is a dream come true for them and they love meeting new friends!
Welcome home, Michael and Wendy!

Meet Ed and Kathy on Laddoos Ave in Trilogy® at Encanterra®
Ed and Kathy have come full circle with their Encanterra® journey. They originally built a new St. Tropez plan back in 2013, which was the perfect size since this was going to be their second home. The Arizona lifestyle allowed them to escape the cold Pennsylvania winters and spend more time with their family, who live in the area. A few years passed and they realized they needed more space but they wanted to stay within Encanterra®. Last month Shea Preferred Realty assisted them with selling their St. Tropez plan and helped them find the perfect resale Genova plan just around the corner from their first home.
Their love story started when Ed returned home from Germany after serving in the Army for two years. Ed was asked to stand in as the best man at his brother’s wedding. During the rehearsal dinner, Ed was introduced to Kathy. That night, Ed knew that Kathy was the girl he was going to marry. This year they celebrated their 43rd wedding anniversary!
Ed worked in construction for a few years then started working for a tire company providing tires for trucks, where he is now part owner of the company and has over 800 employees in 46 stores. Kathy assisted with Ed’s business throughout the years but focused primarily on raising their two boys. After their boys received their college degrees, Kathy decided it was time to go back to school too. She received her IT degree in 2010. Way to go Kathy!
When they originally moved to Encanterra®, Ed was not too keen on coming to Arizona, but now he’d much rather be here than anywhere else. Ed loves spending time at the Solaz pool and spa. Kathy loves taking her walks in the community and also relaxing at the pool. We are thrilled to have you in the Encanterra® family, Ed and Kathy!
