Death notice for the town of: Eganville, Province: Ontario
I am very saddened to hear of Brenda’s passing. I knew her through the horticultural society. Brenda was so generous sharing her gardening knowledge as well as plants from her beautiful gardens. I still enjoy the perennials she kindly gave me and they pleasantly remind me of her. I’m sure your wonderful memories of her will be a comfort in the difficult times ahead.
With deepest sympathy,
Jean Davies
