Brenda Miller Obituary

Brenda Jo Miller, 58, of Cedar Falls, died Monday, July 7, 2025, at her home following a lengthy illness.

Brenda was born January 10, 1967, in Waverly, Iowa, the daughter of Ron and Beverly Miller. She graduated from Janesville High School in 1985. On August 18, 1994, she was united in marriage to Michael Speers. To this union, a daughter MiKayla was born. The couple later divorced. Brenda worked at several local businesses until ill health forced her to stop working.

From a young age, Brenda lived an active life on the family farm. She was known to climb fences and slide down the roof of the chicken coop. She and her sister, Rhonda, were rarely seen apart. In her free time she enjoyed reading books, coloring, and making jewelry.

Brenda is survived by her daughter, MiKayla (Kevin) Bridges of Titusville, Florida, four grandchildren, her mother, Beverly Miller of Waverly, an uncle, Dean Miller of Ames, sister Rhonda Marsden of Wyaconda, Missouri, a brother Rodney Miller of Waverly and several nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her father, Ron Miller, her grandparents and several aunts and uncles.

Celebration of Life Services will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Monday, July 14, 2025, at Peace United Church of Christ in Waverly with Pastor Craig Hancock officiating. The family will greet friends for one hour prior to the service. Memorial contributions may be directed to the family and online condolences may be left at kaisercorson.com.
