Brenda was never tied to just one career, she enjoyed working in healthcare for years and taking care of others, she worked at Unlimited Services and eventually became a stay at home mom to Abby, the job she enjoyed the most. Being a Mom. She was the taxi- mom for many kids to skating and all sorts of fun events. Her home was filled with fun and laughter. She loved to visit her friends and chat over a cup of coffee or two. Brenda had a great sense of humor and through it all never lost that.
