Brenda was a graduate of Hilliard High school and was a lifelong learner. There was rarely a time she wasn’t taking a college class or reading a book. Brenda was known for her extensive knowledge of spelling and grammar and was often referred to as the “Grammar Police”. She even won second place in Latin in the State of Ohio. Brenda worked as an HR Director for Hilton for many years and then went on to work in property management with her Husband, David.

Brenda absolutely loved Disney, especially Mickey Mouse, and went to Disneyland 6 times by herself. She also liked to watch TV, her favorite shows being Jeopardy, Game of Thrones, Vikings, and CBS News Sunday Morning. Brenda was also very creative and liked to sew. She could make purses and blankets out of any materials given to her. She was known for her bling, and always said to David “bring me back something shiny” whenever he left the house.

Brenda wore her heart on her sleeve, and had an intense love for her family and friends. Her self-proclaimed purpose was to meet as many people as possible and make a positive impact on their lives. Her love also extended to her cats, whom she would do anything for. Brenda will be missed by all who knew her.
