Brenda worked hard throughout her life, but her true passion was helping others and making a difference in the community. She moved back to her hometown after raising her family and served on the Village of Bush Board as a trustee for over 15 years. In that time she helped prepare and serve community dinners, helped fundraise for city events, delivered fruit baskets to elder residents at Christmas, and helped raise funds to have new swing sets and picnic tables built for the park. Brenda helped support her fellow board members any way she could. She was someone who cared about her community and the people who surrounded her.
Brenda was preceded in death by her parents, step sister Sheron Diuguid, and former spouse and father of her children, Frank R. Lethiot.
