She was born in Worcester the daughter of Lawrence “Larry” and Ann (Ford) Forget. Brenda passed away leaving behind a legacy of kindness, laughter, and deep devotion to those she loved. She was someone who truly enjoyed life’s simple pleasures and the friendships she built along the way.
For several years, Brenda worked in housekeeping at Dodge Park Rest Home, where she was known for her strong work ethic and warm spirit. Her presence brightened the days of those she worked with and cared for.
Brenda especially loved her summers spent at Pout & Trout in Rutland, a place that became like a second home to her. The friends she made there were more than just companions — they were a second family who shared many wonderful memories together.
She was also part of the New England Sport Touring “NEST Family,” where she enjoyed attending gatherings and spending time with the group’s non-riding wives. These friendships brought her great joy and many happy moments.
In her quieter moments, Brenda loved playing Bingo, a pastime she looked forward to and enjoyed sharing with friends.
Above all else, Brenda cherished time with her family. Nothing brought her greater happiness than being with her loved ones, especially her beloved grandchildren, who brought endless pride and joy to her life.
Brenda will be remembered for her caring heart, her loyalty to friends and family, and the many memories she created with those who were fortunate enough to know her. Her presence will be deeply missed by all who loved her.
