A true angel gained her wings on December 20, 2022. Jade Phoenix Agar left this world to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus and be reunited with her son Johnny. She was 37 years old and the loving wife of Daniel J. Agar and the daughter of Ross and Kelly Phoenix. She was born in Albany NY, raised in Nassau NY, and continued to live there with her family. Jade’s life was devoted to faith, family, and ministry.
