Brenda Kay Haden, 78, passed away at home surrounded by her loving family on October 11. She was born on June 2, 1947 in a small town in West Virginia to her parents Randolph and Ruby Nunley. Brenda grew up in Washington, D.C. where she graduated from High School and then continued on to Cosmetology school. She lived in Montgomery County, MD and worked at the Kentlands Manor for the Donaldson Group for the past 20 years, caring for others every day. She retired in July of this year and moved to be with her family in Delaware. She was a dedicated fan of the Washington Commanders, loved the beach, and bushels of Maryland blue crabs.
Brenda is survived by her sister Elizabeth Williams, daughters Stacie Rosendahl, Christine Haden and Angela Worth, her sons William Haden Jr. and Dane Rosendahl, her grandchildren Brendan Douglas and Ruby Kaya, niece and nephew Denise Hill and Trey Hill, granddog Bradlee, in spirit Siobhan Gazur, a dear family friend who was like a daughter to her, and many, many close lifelong friends.
A celebration of life will be held in the Spring of 2026. To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Brenda, please visit our floral store.
