Another paddle is laid to rest ~ Brenda Welch

 

And so today, we mourn the passing of the “There may be chocolate”  lady, Brenda Welch.
A member for many years, a Board of Director and a Social Committee Chairperson. 
Brenda enjoyed engaging with members and encouraging them to join bowling, mini-golf, and numerous social activities to have fun while meeting club members.
Kind in spirit and a gentle soul, her memory will live on and she will be missed.
May she find a canoe, a bike, a trail in her next life and RIP.
