She met the love of her life drag racing State Street and married him two years later on July 19, 1974. Brenda and Wayne had four amazing children. Her fondest memories were spent at the family ranch in Argyle Canyon. Activities included; branding cattle, collecting elderberries, butchering after the fall hunt, four-wheeling, rebuilding cabins, picking pinecones, and collecting fire wood. Brenda was resourceful and collected fire wood for the doctor to pay for the delivery of her last child. She had a passion for gardening and tending to her beautiful lilac bushes. She loved to have her children slave in the garden for hours so that she could bottle and can the vegetables and fruits of their labor. Brenda was a very special person, touching everyone she met. She had a gift for helping and serving people. The Wimmer family appreciates and thanks the Hospice Nurse Anna Evans and Aide Bonnie Jensen for the excellent care of our mother.
