Brenda Fleming Obituary
Brenda Fleming
July 6, 1928 – January 23, 2025
Brenda died peacefully in her 97th year at Kingston General Hospital following a brief illness. Predeceased by her loving husband of 56 years Dr. Joe Fleming. Dearly loved mother of Catherine (Claude) Manseau, Janet (Dave) Suchanek and Linda (Jack Campbell) Fleming. Devoted Nain of Jason and Megan (Adam Zullo) Manseau, Emily, Zachary and Hayley Suchanek, Scott and Maeve Fleming-Little. Devoted sister of Susan Heath and Alan Young, loving aunt & godmother to many nieces and nephews.
Brenda spent her formative years in Wales, having been evacuated to safer ground with her school during the war and then graduated as a Physiotherapist from Royal Salford Infirmary where she met lifelong friends. In 1954 she traveled to Canada for a year of adventure where she met Joe, and married, living in Kingston, Ottawa, the Big Rideau and finally returning to Kingston in retirement.
Brenda loved to nourish anyone who walked through her door, always keeping in touch and interested in those she knew. She was incredibly generous, endeared herself to those she met and was kind towards those less fortunate. She loved the theatre, enjoyed playing golf, bridge, entertaining, traveling and the Globe and Mail crossword. She was a gracious host whether at home or at the cottages in Quebec and the Rideau lakes and her dinners were legendary. She made a point of staying connected with friends and family in the UK and beyond. Loyal, and fiercely independent, she lived in her own home, on her own terms until the end. Her life was a tour de force. She will be so deeply missed by her family and all those who knew and loved her.
We are most grateful to the teams on Kidd 6 and Connell 9 at KGH, in particular Dr. Marcotte for her compassionate care during mum’s end of life.
In accordance with Brenda’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A memorial service in celebration of her life will take place at the JAMES REID FUNERAL HOME, 1900 John Counter Boulevard, Kingston, on Saturday, February 15, 2025 at 1:00 p.m. For those unable to attend in person, please CLICK HERE to attend via livestream.
