I met Brenda in the 70’s her and George had just moved to Orangeville from Downsview with the kids and Gill. They really enjoyed the town life, where they flourished. Sad to hear of her passing but glad to see she had such a wonderful life!

Brenda was happiest when she was helping others. We, along with the many others she has helped, will miss her dearly. Her generous spirit and determination will forever remain in our hearts and minds. Our deep condolences to all of her family and friends.
