Brenda had various jobs until she found her place in retail at Woolco then Walmart for approx. 30 years. She started in Winnipeg then in Saskatchewan and finished in Selkirk. She enjoyed working with the young staff and customers. She enjoyed researching family history and was the family expert. She enjoyed her trips to Mexico with friends. One of her favourite trips was to England, Scotland and Ireland with family.
The family would like to thank the staff at the Grace Hospital, CancerCare and Riverview Palliative Care Ward for their compassionate, and friendly caring help Brenda and the family received. Thank you.
