She passed away peacefully surrounded by family, while under the compassionate and skilled nursing staff of Kaseman Hospice and the many caring years by her loving husband and family members. Our hearts are truly broken, but our comedic angel on earth was very tired and her strength tested. It was time for her to let go, and finally accepted her wings.

Age 63, of Albuquerque, NM. Brenda entered this world on Monday, July 3, 1961, in Santa Fe, NM to Manuelita Romero. Brenda went to dance with the angels as she was called upon to go to Heaven.

She was preceded in death by sisters: Gertrudes Herrera, Rosie Herrera, nephews: Marlon LeBlanc, George Benavidez III, great-nephew Mikey Mendoza, as well as other loving family members whom we celebrate.

She was an aunt to nearly 110 nieces and nephews and all were so special to her, they each had a unique bond with her.

Her love, faith and devotion were never wavering. Her family and her faith were everything to her; all her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her heart and soul. Brenda lived a full and wonderful life. She loved dancing, telling jokes, going to the casinos, watching reality competition TV shows like Big Brother and Survivor, socializing with family, friends, and strangers. Loved her some Tom Cruise, Pit Bull and Bruno Mars. She was a devoted, loving wife and an absolute loving daughter, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, and aunt.

Brenda always worried and prayed for everyone, but herself. She blessed us all with her love, strength and faith. Her heart was made of pure joy, and we truly believe that pure love ran through her veins. She will certai

El domingo 15 de junio de 2025, Brenda Lee Adame (Herrera), nuestra increíble y hermosa hija, madre, abuela, bisabuela, hermana, tía, prima y amiga pasó de este mundo al cuidado de nuestro Padre Celestial, para unirse a sus hermanas, sobrinos y todos sus seres queridos que se han ido antes.

Falleció pacíficamente rodeada de su familia, mientras estaba bajo el personal ed enfermería compasivo y capacitado del Hospicio Kaseman y los muchos años de cuidado de su amoroso esposo y los miembros de su familia. Nuestros corazones están realmente rotos, pero nuestro ángel cómico en este mundo estaba muy cansada y su fuerza fue probada. Era hora de que ella lo dejara ir y finalmente aceptara sus alas.

63 años, de Albuquerque, NM. Brenda llegó a este mundo el lunes 3 de julio de 1961 en Santa Fe, NM a Manuelita Romero. Brenda fue a bailar con ángeles cuando la llamaban a ir al Cielo. Ella significaba mucho para muchos y tenía un corazón de oro y un alma cómica. Tenía amor incondicional para todos y su risa era contagiosa. Tocó la vida de todos los que la conocieron.

Fue precedida en la muerte por las hermanas Gertrudes Herrera y Rosie Herrera, los sobrinos Marlon LeBlanc y George Benavidez III y su sobrino nieto Mikey Mendoza, así como otros familiares amorosos a quienes celebramos.

Brenda le sobreviven su madre Manuelita Romero, su esposo de 46 años Oscar, su hija Ruby, sus hijos Oscar Jr. (Dina), Joshua y Jonathan; sus nietos Jonas, Julian, Jaiden, Josiah, Kandice, Raymond, Destinee, Miranda, Erica, Nia, Jeremiah, Angelo, Venus, Elijah, Analica y Audrey; sus bisnietos, Nova, Daniel, Alicio y Kameliah; así como otros familiares y amigos cariñosos

Era tía de casi 110 sobrinas y sobrinos y todos eran especiales para ella y que cada uno tenía un vínculo único con ella.

Su amor, fe y devoción nunca flaquearon. Su familia y su fe eran todo para ella, todos sus hijos, nietos y bisnietos eran su corazón y alma. Brenda vivió una vida plena y maravillosa. Le encantaba bailar, contar chistes, ir a los casinos, ver programas de televisión de competencia de telerrealidad como Big Brother y Survivor, socializar con familia, amigos y extraños. Era un gran fan de Tom Cruise, Pit Bull y Bruno Mars. Era una esposa devota y amorosa y una hija, madre, abuela, bisabuela y tía absolutamente amorosa.

Brenda siempre se preocupó y oró por todos, menos por sí misma. Ella nos bendijo a todos con su amor, fuerza y fe. Su corazón estaba hecho de pura alegría, y realmente creemos que el amor puro corría por sus venas. Cirtamento la echaremos de menos, siempre estará en nuestros corazones y todos sus mejores rasgos siempre seguirán viviendo a través de toda su familia.
