Brenda J Arnold

Brenda Joyce Arnold, 63, of Port Huron went home to be with our Lord Monday, January 19, 2026.

She was born January 8, 1963 to Judith and the late Vern Grambow. She married Jeffery Lee Arnold on June 27, 1987 in Port Huron. The couple spent their honeymoon in Niagara Falls and later returned in their travels.

Brenda’s nursing experience helped shape her into an exceptional activity director, with a rare gift for making 80-year-olds feel comfortable, valued, and young at heart. She loved working with her hands and “playing in the dirt,” and for many years was a devoted member of the Blue Water Garden Club, where she formed lasting friendships and took great pride in beautifying Port Huron-especially through her work in the Pine Grove Park Gardens. Her own yard was equally pristine, filled with carefully tended flowers. Her love of travel began early, as she journeyed across the country as a child with her parents. Brenda and her husband loved hiking and traveling, visiting places such as London, Paris, Acapulco, the Cayman Islands, Toronto, Chicago, Las Vegas, New Orleans, Lake Geneva, French Lick, Milwaukee, and Indianapolis. They also traveled extensively throughout Michigan, including Beaver Island and the Traverse City Bay area. Brenda also enjoyed live Broadway theatre and attended many productions over the years. One of her favorite walking partners was her miniature Dachshund, Mandy, for 13 years. She enjoyed bicycling, was a strong and loving woman, and cherished nothing more than time spent with her family.

She is survived by her husband of 38 years, Jeff; mother, Judith Grambow; two sisters, Cheryl (Gary) Howard and Kimberly (Rick) Wittner; and many nieces, nephews and cousins. She was preceded in death by her father, Vern Grambow.

Visitation will be held from 2-4 and 6-8 p.m. Monday, January 26, 2026 in Pollock-Randall Funeral Home.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, January 27, 2026 in Holy Redeemer Lutheran Church with visitation beginning at 10:00 a.m. The Reverend Aaron Duve will officiate.

Burial will be in Lakeside Cemetery, next to her father.
