Obituary of Brenda J. (McElroy) McNulty

Peacefully at Groves Park Lodge, Renfrew, on Thursday, August 22, 2024. Brenda is survived by her sister, Ann Taylor; children Shane (Julie), John (Mia), Daniel (Ruth); grandchildren Alex and Mitchell (Julia) Small; Ben and Peter McNulty and Colleen Harnish (Logan); Matthew McNulty (Megan) and Lindsay McMurray (Jordan); and Shannon and Jack McNulty (Lauren); great-grandchildren Averly and Addison McMurray and Myah McNulty; and several nieces and nephews.

Brenda was predeceased by her parents, J.T. & Jessie McElroy, husband Rodney McNulty, step-daughter Lori Small, siblings Catherine Mulligan, Mary, Jack, Margaret, James, and (twin brother) Stephen McElroy.

Brenda was a secondary school teacher for over 30 years and was well-known for teaching Geography at Carleton Place High School. She was an avid reader and a caring provider for our family. Her sharp Scottish wit and intellect will be missed by family and friends.

Special thanks to the staff at Groves Park Lodge for the wonderful care Brenda received.  At Brenda's request a private family service will be held at Beechwood Cemetery, Ottawa.  Donations in memory of Brenda may be made to the Groves Park Lodge Auxiliary.
