possible sighting in Phoenix

I live in North Phoenix. Looking north I noticed a single point of light it was steady and did not move at all. I fixed the light in refrence to the edge of my portch to see if it might be moving. As I watched a commercial jet flew under the object. We have what I would term an approach pattern somewhat over our home for Sky Harbor Airport however SHA is 20 miles south of us so the jets are usually fairly high. The object was much higher which made me think it may be a planet or star being illuminated by the setting sun. To my surprise it vanished as I was watching it. It didnt move the whole time but it seemed to have a brownish haze around it then just seemed to fade away. The fact the it didnt move was what drew my attention to it in the first place, and watching it fade rose the hair on the back of my neck!
