September 5, 1951 – January 6, 2025

It is with deep sadness we the family, announce the passing of Brenda Marie Hamaberg on January 6, 2025, at the Selkirk Regional Health Centre.

                                                                                                                                                                           Brenda leaves to mourn and cherish her memory, her husband of 54 years Wayne; daughter Wanda, grandson Cody and son Dwayne. She also leaves her older brother Larry (Beryl) Specaluk, her sister Valerie (Rick) Reykdal, younger brother Tim (Patty) Specaluk, sister-in-law Faye Shalagon and nephews and nieces to numerous to mention.

She was predeceased by her parents Stanley and Olga Specaluk; her in-laws Roger and Lillian Hamaberg; sister-in-law Katheryn Smaldon and brother-in-law Mike Shalagon.

Brenda was born in Gimli and raised in Winnipeg Beach where she went to school.  She moved to Norris Lake when she met and married Wayne.  She had numerous jobs including Bill & Bea’s, Promo Wear, Inwood and Teulon Golf Course and finished her working career at the Teulon Elementary School where she was an educational assistant.  She was a member of the IPCCC. She loved camping, the outdoors and especially gardening.  You could always find her in her flower beds.  Bingo was always a good time with her crew from Norris Lake carpooling to Inwood. In the last couple years to recent she enjoyed cheering on her great nephew Blaze and the Teulon Tigers.

 But without a doubt her favorite time was spending it with family.

Cremation has taken place, and a celebration of Brenda’s life will take place later this year in the summer.

 In lieu of flowers donations can be made to your choice of charity.

At this time the family would like to extend their sincere thanks to Dr Loudon and staff in Teulon. The doctors and nursing staff at the Selkirk Regional Health Centre for their care and kindness; and to the family and friends of the community for their out-pouring of support and kindness.

There were seven Spanish Angels
At the Altar of the Sun
They were prayin’ for the lovers
In the Valley of the Gun
When the battle stopped, and the smoke cleared
There was thunder from the throne
And seven Spanish Angels
Took another angel home
