Dear Kurt Abby Nolan and Penny:
My heartfelt Sympathy to Your family !
Brenda was a very Special Cousin to me from the time I was born - Brenda was my Rock, my Mentor & my Confidant, Any one who knew Brenda -I am sure will greatly miss her positive out look - endless energy & fun crazy spirit !
But I am sure she is watching from above!!!
This is a Poem … I have edited a bit -as it is so Brenda - & I wanted to share the special words with your family …
THE VOICE OF YHE WIND
When the warm fresh fall breeze of October caresses you
-part of it will be me
When you look into the eyes of my Awesome son Kurt, my Beautiful daughter in law Abby and my Wonderful Ray of Sunshine …my grandchildren -Nolan and Penny
-part of them will be me
When a snowflake of winter gently lands on your cheek
-that kiss might well be me
And the dust which appears out of nowhere
-maybe part of the dust that was me
*If You see a beautiful Dragonfly
- consider I have come from above to guide your way!
Through the promise of the morning and the voice of the wind
-I will always have something to say!
-to Reflect on those wonderful moments and warm your heart as you make your way !
The things that we all were a part of will Continue to brighten each day!
Make room for the sound of -laughter by remembering…..
……….. iI AM NOT FAR AWAY!
* God Speed Brenda……that Halo & Angel Wings -look great on You !
Love You Always.
Sandi

Brenda was as welcoming, accepting, and caring as they come. I have many great memories of hanging out at your house sharing gossip with Brenda and making sure Kurt always knew who her favorite son was :). We are thinking of you and your family, Kurt, and know that your mom will always be a funny story or a happy memory away!

Brenda was very kind to everyone as well as understanding. It was a privilege to know her.
She was role model of how to be a wonderful mother, friend, and human being. Her bright spirit lives on in the people she has met, even the people who only got a quick glimpse of her smile. Heaven has its angel back. ❤️. Kathy whiting

Brenda was a fun, out going, generous person with such a giving personality. Met Brenda when she was involved with Wasi XC ski club. Then again at L. F. Our friendship grew when she joined Trinity United church.
Brenda loved her family, and friends. She loved to laugh too .Her grandchildren were the light of her life. Our community lost a bright shining star when we lost Brenda. She will be missed by many.

I have known Brenda since the early 1980's, both having worked at the North Bay Psychiatric Hospital, x-country skied, and in more recent years, belonged to a monthly lunch group. I was in awe of her boundless energy and willingness to support and volunteer with so many community organizations. Her flower gardens were so beautiful-- I recall once winning first prize in the North Bay Blooms competition! I still remember the day she told us gals at lunch that she was going to be a grandmother...her smile lit up the room. Her outgoing, cheerful and positive outlook on life was something to be admired. Her sense of humour and funny antics will be missed. I will be watching for the dragonflies and always think of her.
My sincere condolences to Kurt, Abby, Nolan and Penny.

Brenda and I met many years ago at Living Fit and I was drawn to her sparkling personality. We didn’t see each other often but it didn’t matter it was just like it was yesterday. I was a big fan of her marvellous garden and visited it often sometimes with out of town visitors. Brenda was one of a kind…she will be missed.
Our deepest sympathy. Helen and Ray Sweig.

To Kurt, Abby, Nolan and Penny:
I am so sorry for the loss of your mother and grandmother. I don't have to tell you what a wonderful lady she was and how well loved she was by friends and acquaintances. I worked with Brenda at the waterfront gardens and lived around the corner from her house on Wyld St. I am so glad that I got to know her and love her. I met Nolan years ago when he was little while he was visiting and I visited Brenda and she took me through her garden to show me her new editions, I moved away but stayed connected with her on Facebook and loved her postings of the fun times she had with Nolan and Penny.
It was just like Brenda to write her own obituary and ease our pain with her cheerful goodbye.
May she rest in peace.

So sorry for your loss. I met Brenda about 30 yrs ago through work. She was a wonderful women. I had an opportunity to see her last May and she was still the same warm and positive person despite her diagnosis. She will be missed but leaves many fond memories
