She married the love of her life Mark Eganhouse on April 9, 1988, at St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church in Denison.

Brenda had many talents which ranged from managing hair salons, leading training at telecom companies and selling advertisements for Opera Columbus to starting two companies, B.E. Vintage and BEME, LLC Real Estate. She had a passion for upscaling everything she touched, including her husband, Mark! She was a giver, not a taker. She enjoyed donating her time to the Bargain Center, helping organize the Foodbank of Siouxland annual charity auction and was a circle leader at St. Michael's Catholic Church. Brenda was a member of the Holy Cross Parish. She enjoyed golfing, cruising, and traveling to Phoenix to spend time with family.

Brenda will be remembered for her beautiful smile, big laugh, and warm hugs.

She is survived by her husband; two children; Chelsea (Nicholas) Anderson of Columbus, Ohio, and Jacob Eganhouse of Columbus; two grandchildren Cienna and Caden Anderson; mother, Linda Launderville of Phoenix, Ariz.; sister, Tracy (Gary) Loesl of Phoenix; mother-in-law Janet Eganhouse; ten nieces and nephews; and many dear friends.

She was preceded in death by her father, Dean Launderville; maternal grandparents, Henry and Lucile Abbas; paternal grandparents, William and Bernice Launderville; and father-in-law, David Eganhouse.

In lieu of flowers, a memorial fund has been created in Brenda's names for the American Cancer Society.
