Brenda Jean Nutwell, 69, of Deale, Maryland passed away peacefully at the Rebecca Fortney Hospice House in Pasadena on February 8, 2020.  She was born on December 3, 1950 to the late Samuel James Nutwell, Sr. and Ruth Ellen (Whittington) Nutwell.  Brenda was the beloved sister of Donna Kay Stover of Dunkirk, Maryland and Samuel J. Nutwell, Jr. of Florida.  She was also survived by many nieces, nephews, and cousins as well as friends from her church and  community.   Brenda’s early years were spent in Hillcrest Heights, Maryland.  She graduated from Potomac Senior High School in 1969 and began a career with the Internal Revenue Service in Washington, D.C.  Upon retirement, she moved to Deale with her parents.  Most of all, Brenda loved her home, her family and her church.  When at home, she liked taking walks, watching musicals, listening to the music of the 60’s as well as crafting.  Her outings with her cousin Lois and Saturdays with her sister were special times.  Brenda also enjoyed spending time with friends at the South County Senior Center.

Following the services, family and friends are invited to a luncheon to celebrate Brenda’s life at Cedar Grove United Methodist Church.

Expressions of Sympathy in Brenda’s name may be made to Hospice of the Chesapeake, 90 Ritchie Highway, Pasadena, MD 21122 (please note name of loved one in memo line) or to Cedar Grove United Methodist Church,  Deale, MD.
