Obituary of Brenda Irving
It is with deep sadness we announce the death of Brenda Gail Irving of Windsor Ontario, who passed peacefully in her sleep at the age of 85 on October 12th 2025.
Brenda was born on April 16th 1940, to her late parents, Andrew and Marjorie Irving. Mother to Marlene. Grandmother to Sara (Stephen) and Megan (Thomas). A proud Gigi to Callum (2024), and Malcolm whom she loved so much. In death she is reunited with three of her best friends: Vicky, Sandy, and Les. She is now lovingly back with her two beloved dogs, Muffy and Kallie.
A retired teacher of thirty years, Brenda loved spending her time traveling, golfing, playing cards, shopping at Costco, watching Tigers games, and hosting parties for any and all occasions. Most recently, she loved spending time with her new great grandson, Malcolm, who truly was her pride and joy. Their time together was cut short, but she is now with her late great grandson, Callum, adoring him and reading to him just as she did for Malcolm.
She will be so deeply missed by her card club: Donna, Karlene, Annie, Meredith (Harry), Sue, Geri, Diana, and Helene. Brenda leaves behind her cousins Rod and Liz Tregwin, long-time best friend Sheila Tyler, Wayne and Julie Bartlett, and many other friends she made throughout her life through teaching, socializing, golfing, and her gym classes she loved so much.
