Brenda Allen Obituary
Resident of Santa Cruz Co.
On the morning of May 8th, 2013, beloved Brenda Elizabeth Clark Allen peacefully passed at age 52, after a courageous 16 year battle with cancer. This honorable woman adamantly clung to life, and with extraordinary vigor continued taking care of her intelligent 12 year old daughter, Allyson, for as long as she could. Knowing of her fate, Brenda provided her daughter art supplies and piano lessons, in hopes of initiating Allyson's' happiness. Her beautiful love-slave Siamese, George, will also surely miss her in the days to come. Brenda was born February 7, 1961, and following that important date, came a plethora of Wasco boots and camouflage pants. She will be remembered in her younger days enjoying her trips up Kings Creek riding her four wheeler. A heart warming thanks and endless appreciation goes out to hospice, in which Brenda spent her last six months. This private, independent, yet exceedingly strong-willed woman, will forever be missed. Rest in peace Brenda Elizabeth Clark Allen.
Brenda is survived by her grandmother, Margret Garder of Sedilia, Mo., father, Dan Clark of Drumph, Nv. and her 4 children- Steve Clark of Trenton, Mo., Jake Gaschet of Raytown, Mo., Becky "Jo" Unger of Brookdale, Ca. and Allison Allen of Brookdale, Ca.
Her Memorial will be held on June 8th 1pm to 3 pm at IOOF Hall in Boulder Creek, Ca.
