BRENDA JOYCE BOND

January 24, 1946 - February 9, 2024


On February 9, 2024, Brenda Joyce Bond, a former Winnipegger, passed away at Moog Hospice in Penticton, BC, at 78 years of age, after a year and a half struggle with terminal lung cancer. She had been living in Okanagan Falls, BC since moving there in 1986.

Brenda enjoyed a full, exciting and varied life and left this world on her own terms, having arranged for a medically-assisted death upon receiving her cancer diagnosis. She died surrounded by family and a couple of close friends, in a beautiful, serene setting, with time to say her goodbyes before falling into an eternal sleep.

Her memory will forever be cherished by the remaining members of her immediate family: husband Don Gabel; daughter Kristine Thevenot (John); granddaughter Shelby Thevenot; grandson Cole Thevenot (Darian) and great-grandchildren, Ava and Addison; sister Evelyn Fletcher (Don) and nephew Robson Fletcher.

Cremation has taken place and a memorial is being planned for Why, Arizona, where Brenda and Don have spent their winters over the past 20 years.

We all love you Brenda and will miss your joyous spirit and zest for life. Sleep well!

  • My condolences to the family and everyone that knew Brenda. She was a very kind person who always had a good story to tell and whose laugh was infectious. She will be missed. - Posted by: Wendy (step-daughter) on: Mar 05, 2024

  • I really don't know you personally. But I'd like to extend my condolences to the family. My husband past away from Cancer four years this month. He would of been 77 this year. It's never easy, but a day will come when things do get easier. You'll always love them and miss them dearly. Still today grief sometimes comes like a big wave and you can't do anything about it. But that's all part of healing. Let yourself grieve as that's a big part of healing. And take as long as you need. As theirs no time frame. Heaven is closer than we think. Maybe their three feet away from us at all times. Hugs and prayers tothe family. Paulette - Posted by: Paulette Thevenot (Cousin on my husband side.) on: Feb 24, 2024

  • I remember Brenda way back when we were in kindergarten, grades 1, 2 and 3 at Victoria Albert School in Winnipeg. I am sorry to hear of her passing, and wish to give my condolences to her family and friends in their loss. Romans 15:13 “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in faith so that you overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” - Posted by: Allan Roy Besson (Elementary school friend) on: Feb 24, 2024
