BRETT, Mariel Anna (Prest) – Passed away peacefully on January 23, 2024. She was the beloved wife of the late Grant Brett (2011) and loving mother to David (Jillian), Richard (Lydia), and Jeffrey (Sherrie). She was grandmother to Curtis, the late Daniel (2022), Rhena and Dalton and great-grandmother to Rowan and Marlo. She is survived by her sister Marjorie Ewald who turned 100 years on Mariel’s 93rd birthday, January 11th. Mariel grew up on a small farm in Ivanhoe and often spoke of her father’s beekeeping. She lived her married life in Madoc and was by Grant’s side working at their many businesses including insurance, real estate, snowmobile sales and service, and woodworking. As the boys grew up they were a cottage family, enjoying the water, building and renovating cottages and homes and exploring the country north of Madoc. Mariel had a close association with the Presbyterian church in Madoc, serving on many committees and enjoyed the services and community right up to the last week of her life. Mariel was a loving, caring, gentle, compassionate person, who enriched all those who knew her, and was a shining example of humanity at its best.
