Obituary

Brenda suddenly passed away of a heart attack on November 22, 2022 she is survived by her husband, Dave her son John and wife, Andrea McGrain and daughter Rebecca McGrain and four grandchildren, Jack, Teddy, Michael, and June. And as always, Brenda thought more of other people than herself and she sadly paid the ultimate price. She requested that she not have an open ceremony or people around to gaze upon her after death. I think she would have wanted people just to remember her by memories that come up in pictures and/or song.
