Brenda Rimel

With an enduring spirit and a heart full of love, Brenda Rimel, a dedicated mother, grandmother, and friend, left her earthly home on May 16, 2026. Born in Massillon, OH on June 6, 1963, Brenda was a beacon of resilience and dedication, her life a testament to the power of love, patience, and perseverance. A lifelong resident of Massillon, she was an emblem of the town's warmth and hospitality, known for her generous spirit and loving nature.

A woman of many passions, Brenda's zest for life was infectious. She had an innate ability to make any occasion special with her baking, a skill she loved to showcase during holidays and family gatherings. Her love for literature was evident in her appreciation for Stephen King and Agatha Christie novels. She was also a frequent visitor to the casino, where she enjoyed the camaraderie and excitement. Despite the trials of life, Brenda remained resilient, her spirit undaunted. She was a woman of strength, a loving mother to her sons David Collier and Scott Schultz, and a doting grandmother to her five grandchildren. She was a beloved sister, aunt, and a caring daughter to her mother Patricia Collier and the late Benjamin Collier Sr.

To quote Helen Keller, "What we have once enjoyed deeply we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us." Brenda's love and dedication have forever imprinted on the hearts of those she leaves behind, living on in the memories we hold dear. Her legacy of love, generosity, and resilience will continue to inspire and guide us.
