Brenda Riniker Obituary

Brenda Riniker
February 1, 1945 - January 19, 2022
Citrus Heights, California - Brenda is known for drinking Pepsi out of a Big Gulp, driving a blue Nissan truck to McClellan Airforce base, cinnamon big red gum and playing Celtic Thunder from a cassette tape. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints & was their extractor for genealogy. Since Alex Trebek is no longer hosting Jeopardy and caffeine free Pepsi was her new norm there wasn't much to live for anymore. She left behind 2 sons, Donald and Christopher Riniker, 3 grandchildren Camille Fullmer, McKenzie Williamson, Zareck Riniker, great grandchild, McKenna Fullmer & her dog, Little Bit. Her favorite was disclosed on video shortly before her passing. Brenda was kind, told it like it is and was the ultimate bad a**. She waited to pass until every grandkid came to visit. Some would say she passed away from cancer or argue it was the thought of hearing Joe Biden attempt to form another sentence. Celebration of life 02/12/2022 11-4 at her home in Citrus Heights.
