That smile could light up any room and will be deeply missed by all whose lives she touched. She was a devoted and loving wife to Roy, sharing a life built on partnership, laughter, and endless support. As a mum to Debbie and Lisa, Nana to Ella Charlie and Tom and GG to Ralphie Isaac and Penelope and good friend to many.
Brenda was the true heart and soul of our family. She took immense pride in watching her family grow, anchoring us all with her unconditional love, wisdom, and gentle guidance.
Brenda was born and lived in Bacup until she met and married Roy, starting their married life in Rishton before moving to Copster Green. Beyond her dedication to her family, Brenda had a true passion for life and adventure.
