Obituary for Brenda Kollath

Memorial services for Brenda Kollath age 54 of Wisner, NE are currently pending with the Minnick Funeral Home in Wisner.
Brenda Kay Kollath (Friesen), a longtime resident of the Pilger-Wisner community got the last word in on Sunday, July 18th in Pender after passing due to a long battle with complications of Covid-19.
Brenda is survived by her father, Howard V. Friesen and special friend Charlotte Buchanan, “Pain in the @$$” brother Anthony, his wife AJ, their son, who most people know as her most favorite nephew in the whole world, Raz, her favorite niece Amethyst (Scotty) Collins, her grand-niece Sarah Rose, and special friends Sheila Choat and Sherri Anderson. She is also survived by several aunt, uncles, and numerous cousins and lots of friends. Brenda was preceded in death by her mother, Marlene, her older brother, Howard Jr., and her grandparents.
Brenda came into this world as the middle child and much lamented only daughter of Howard V. Sr. and Marlene Friesen on October 28th, 1966 in York, NE. She grew up fighting with her brothers and collecting friends. Brenda’s keen sense of humor and rowdy personality drew people into her circle and once there, it was hard to be put out of it. Brenda moved to the Pilger/Wisner area in the early 90’s and continued collecting friends. Brenda’s hobbies included reading, watching anything ghost related, crushing on Steven Segal, karaoke, chatting with friends, picking on AJ, coffee dates with Raz, and sharing stories of her families’ antics.
Brenda’s wish was to be cremated, but there will be memorial services held in Pilger and York where friends and family will be welcomed.
Memorials and donations to be directed to the family to offset funeral expenses.
