It is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of Brenda Maude Wronski on June 22, 2012. She fought her battle with cancer, with both courage and humility.

Brenda was born in Finchley, London, England on June 18, 1936. She came to Canada in 1957. She first owned a coffee shop. She worked as a printer for the BC School Trustees. Sometime later she was the PR Department of Amalgamated Construction House. In the early 90's she moved to Cranbrook where she ran the Cheers Pub for a time.

She will be thought of as the source of emotional support for both family and friends, as she was a living muse of encouragement. Brenda had a special gift with children, and they all adored her. She will be remembered for in-depth conversations on a variety of topics with anyone willing to debate.

She leaves to mourn her husband Phillip, together with her daughters Aura Carriere, Lynn Tetrault, Diane Fujisawa, Jan Roger and their extended families. She also leaves a magnitude of friends that she adopted as family.

A Wake will be held in her honour in August, where people will be encouraged to dance, laugh and share wonderful memories.
