Brenda enjoyed living life. She loved her Lord and enjoyed singing. As a dedicated healthcare worker, Brenda truly loved working with people and caring for others. Her compassionate nature shone brightly throughout her life, including when she lovingly cared for her mother, Ethel Corey, during her final days. She also enjoyed hiking, camping, her pet dogs and cats, and spending time with family and friends. She loved everyone deeply and unconditionally, holding a special place in her heart for children and treating every child she met with the same warmth, care, and affection as her own. She lived her life without favorites or prejudice, welcoming everyone into her circle with an open heart and a gentle spirit. She may have been small in stature, but she was mighty in spirit!
