BRENDA OGREN
BRENDA OGREN November 12, 1950 July 31, 2023 It is with an incredibly sad heart that we announce the passing of Brenda Ogren who left us on July 31st, 2023.
Brenda was an amazing Nana, Mother, Daughter, Sister, Aunt & Best Friend. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Brenda had a love for bingo & cards. She thoroughly enjoyed spending her Saturday evenings playing TV Bingo with her friends and family; followed by a supper and evening of cards with many laughs.
Brenda had many close friends who she spent much of her time with. She loved her three granddaughters deeply, making sure to attend all of their sporting events and any event they were involved in (and there were many!). Brenda was full of life and kept herself busy. If not bingo or grandkids, you could find her behind her sewing machines mending & altering heaps of gowns and clothing. She had an amazing gift. Our local seamstress!
Brenda is survived by her mother Grace Ronning, her sister Jacquelyn (Brian) Roth, her children Denise Thomas (Marc Schirok), Chad Ogren (Tanya Amiro), Crystal (Corey) Folbar, her grandchildren Rayne Thomas, Nevaeh Folbar, Serenity Folbar, her aunt Marg Girgulis, as well as many in-laws, cousins, nieces & nephews.
She is predeceased by her husband Dennis Ogren, father Harold Ronning & brother Terry Ronning.
We will forever cherish her memory and the incredible impact she had on us all. As her friends recently said “She was a real Gem!” and “Bingo & Cards won’t be the same without her.”
