AUBURN — Brenda L. Perry, beloved wife, mother and Mimi, passed away, peacefully Saturday, Sept. 10, at the Hospice House after a 2½ year battle with cancer.

Brenda had a passion for working with children and was most recently a teacher for the Androscoggin Headstart program, where her classroom was used as a model in which the agency based many of their other classrooms on. She was also known for being a pivotal part of the MSAD 52 cheerleading programs. She helped found the River Valley Hornets and was the varsity cheering coach for Leavitt High School for 14 years.

Brenda is survived by her husband, David; their children, Tiffany, Heather, Chad, Chelsea and Lucas; along with their seven grandchildren, Julian, Grace, Kailee, Briana, Justyn, Jakob and Thayer. Words cannot express how greatly they will miss her.

She is also survived by her parents, Elwin and Paula Mulherin; her siblings, Cheryl and Kevin and their spouses; her in-laws, Arthur and Loretta Perry and Tammy and Rick Kramarz; and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins and those considered family.

She is predeceased by her grandparents; several aunts and uncles; her brother-in-law, Robert; and a special aunt, Margaret Marston.
