I was so saddened to hear of Brenda's passing. She and I worked together for several years, and I was always impressed with her attention to detail, time management skills, and resilience. She kept us all on task! Her face would light up when she talked about Nathan, as she was so incredibly proud of him. Her oatmeal raisin cookies were my favorite, and she made them for my birthday every year.  She loved sharing stories of her family, and taught me many lessons about life.  Besides her family, she also had a strong love for animals, and spent a lot of her time caring for them.

My deepest condolences to Brenda's family, especially Nathan, as she was an absolute gem and I'm honored I was able to know her.

In Sympathy,
Jennifer Comfort

Brenda will be dearly missed.  We worked together for many years.  She was not only a coworker but a good friend.  She was always so patient teaching me how to do occupant measurements no matter how many times I asked the same question.
She was so proud of Nathan.  It was very apparent whenever she spoke of him.
I pray the Lord will give Nathan and family much comfort and peace in their memories.
Brenda loved and enjoyed her retirement.  She was taken much too soon.
I will miss her smile, good nature, friendship and our lunches.
She was loved by so many.

I was so saddened to hear of Brenda’s passing.  The world has lost a truly kind person.  She will be missed by so many and remembered for all the happy memories she brought to her family and friends.  My condolences to her family at this difficult time.

We used to work together years ago and occasionally hang out socially. I always really enjoyed your company. You’re the only person I’ve ever known to have read Les Miserables more than once! I’m so sorry to hear of your passing. I will never forget your smile and how often you would cause me to wear one too. Rest in peace, dear Brenda. Thank you for being part of my life.

Brenda was not just a coworker but also a friend and a mentor to me. Her patience, guidance and willingness to share her knowledge with me was invaluable to my growth and development. I will forever be grateful for the time and effort she invested in helping me become a better professional. You will dearly be missed, but your memory and the knowledge you imparted will live on in our hearts and in the work we continue to do.

I was very fortunate to get to know Brenda through work and was happy we continued to meet for lunch every few months after her retirement. I will truly miss our get togethers. She was kind and positive and it was fun for us to share stories concerning our families, our children, work, home projects, plus her love of reading and her paintings of course. She was an extremely intelligent person yet so genuine and down to earth. Brenda’s work ethic was amazing, one we can all aspire to; always focused and precise while patiently sharing her knowledge with anyone in need. To Nathan, her many siblings, family and friends, I’m so sorry for your loss. She will be forever missed.

Brenda was a source of great work ethic with a smile on her face. She was a role model in following the process and delivering quality deliverables. Similar to her work she was a dedicated mom who loved and supported her son Nathan.  She was proud of his achievements in life.
It is sad that when time to came enjoy her golden years life was cut short. I will always remember her with fond memories and pray God to give strength to her son Nathan and her loved ones to carry on the life with smile as she had.

I had the great pleasure of working with Brenda for many years at Ford. She was a dedicated employee, very smart, eager to learn and take on new challenges. She was always great to work with. 
Her greatest love, concern and pride was her son, Nathan who she spoke of fondly. 
Brenda will be missed by me and so many people who came to know her.

I worked with Brenda at Ford in Vehicle Architecture for many years.  I remember her,  with gratitude, as one of the most honest, and authentic people I have ever met.  
Her hard work, discipline and knowledge were more than commendable.  
One sure love and happiness in her life was her son, she never lacked for a smile when she mentioned him and was so proud of  his accomplishments.  It was always a pleasure to hear her talk of him.  
She also often brought up her niece with a smile and kind words. 
That’s how I will remember Brenda.

I am so fortunate to have met Brenda about fifteen years ago, becoming not only coworkers, but also dear friends. We shared so many enjoyable experiences: working on fun projects, taking lunch walks, and laughing together. I always admired her attention to detail, extensive knowledge, and honest feedback. Outside of work, she taught me a lot about American culture. She truly is a wonderful person and friend. 
She was not only a great friend, but also a proud parent. She always spoke highly of her son and was proud of his accomplishments. I pray that heaven brings her peace and comfort. She will be deeply missed, a kind soul gone too soon.

This is just so heartbreaking to hear. Brenda and I worked together for years, back when she was a designer, and when they were looking to hire someone in our group she was the one and only person I suggested that we bring over and they did.  After that we sat kitty corner from each other for the next 10 years and we retired together on the same day. She truly was a great colleague and a good friend and she will be missed.

Every time I bumped into Brenda at work, it was a smile or some sort of nice exchange.  That's what you remember, and people like her make the world go around.  Much too soon!

I worked near Brenda at Ford when we relocated to Zone A for over 10 years in Vehicle Architecture!  She was almost always there before 6am and stayed after 2:30pm, which I think was just to hang out with her buddy Ke Wang.   My goal was to make her laugh at least once every week either at me or with me.  She did keep us informed on how much she loved her son and that she was always proud of him.  Brenda was a wonderful person.

I was very fortunate to have Brenda work for me for a short time at Ford (Vehicle Architecture).  I was a new supervisor to the group and had lots to learn.  She was so patient with me and taught me so much.  Through our various conversations, it was obvious how much she loved her family and how centered her faith was.  Prayers to her family during this difficult time.  I have faith she's watching over you from up above.

So sad.  I sat by Brenda at Ford  Motor.  She was a wonderful person.  I would walk by her desk every morning on the way to mine. Brenda would always have a smile on her face and a good morning. Brenda will be missed deeply.  Brenda and family will be in my thoughts and prayers. 🙏

I had worked with Brenda at Ford for our whole careers there (over 28 years!)  She sat at a desk very near mine for over 10 years in Vehicle Architecture!  She was a great person to know and an asset to VA and Ford Motor Company!
We always appreciated how she kept us in line over the wall!
She will be missed by all of us!
God Bless you Brenda.

I cannot believe you are gone. We have worked together since 1985.
I don't know what else to say.  I will miss you forever.

Nathan and family, Brenda was a caring,, beautiful , talented person. I agree with Sheila that she had that special giggle.  She especially beamed when she spoke of Nathan that she was extremely proud of and loved those Stratford trips.  Heaven now has a talented painter. I will miss our walks, dinner , and exercise together. Prayers and hugs .

Rest in peace my beautiful friend. Your easy smile and little giggle will not be forgotten. I’m so fortunate that our paths in life crossed and look forward to seeing you again. My deepest sympathies to all of your siblings and, most especially, Nathan who you were ever so proud of.  Heaven has received a very special person who will brighten up the place, for sure.
