Brenda was born in Seneca Falls, the daughter of the late Aden and Viola (Crane) Van Cleef. She graduated from Mynderse Academy, Class of 1959. After high school she furthered her education to become an LPN. She scored a perfect score on her LPN state boards, a testament to the career that she would become so well known for. She started out in nursing at Willard State Hospital and then at Seneca Falls Hospital where she worked for over 20 years until they closed. She then worked again at Willard State Hospital before taking employment at the ARC in Seneca Falls. She loved being a nurse and helping those in need.

She was a life member at Trinity Episcopal Church. Brenda always enjoyed going to Disney and visiting any chance she could. She also liked I Love Lucy and taking car rides, especially to see the houses that were lit up with Christmas lights. She was a very kind hearted person who enjoyed caring for others.

She is survived by her sons, Sean, Riley (Lynn), Casey (Pamela) Egan; daughter, Suzanne (Adam) Dean; grandchildren, Ronald (Ammie), William (Sara), Alexis, Ireland, Devin, Shane, Brady, Jose, Mason, Evie, Amelia; great-grandchildren, William Jr. and Stanlyn; siblings, Janet Daldry, Louis (Sandy) Van Cleef, Patricia (Raphael) Blevins, Kim Talomie, as well as extended family and friends.
