Obituary for Brenda Lee Nowell (Carson)
Passed away, peacefully with family by her side, at the Maple Manor Nursing Home, Tillsonburg, on Monday, September 7, 2020, Brenda Lee (Carson) Nowell, at the age of 71. Brenda will be remembered as a former Legal Secretary and for her dedicated volunteerism with the MS Society – Oxford. Diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1981, she lived life to the fullest. Despite Brenda’s physical ailments, she did not complain or let it slow her down; she was very crafty, enjoyed quilting, sewing and cross stitching. Such a wonderful woman - and we are all grateful and blessed at having had her in our lives.
Much loved wife of 51 years to Bill Nowell, of RR1 Otterville. Lovingly remembered by her children and grandchildren: Christopher Nowell (Jennifer), of Cumberland, B.C. and their son Alexander; Callie Spice (James), of Beachville and their children Maizie and Zephyr; Clay Nowell (Alesha), of Woodstock, and their children Hayden and Madison. Brenda is also survived by her brother Brad Carson (Arlene), of Courtland and by her cherished lifelong friend Brenda Foris.
