SUNAPEE — Brenda L. Huff, 68, of Sunapee, New Hampshire passed away unexpectedly Sunday, June 24, 2018. Brenda was born Feb. 10, 1950 in New London, New Hampshire to Bill and Alice Roach. She married Mike Huff on Aug. 7, 1982. Brenda was a graduate of Sunapee Senior High School, received her undergraduate in from Plymouth State University and her Masters in Education from UNH.
Forever devoted to teaching, Brenda will always be celebrated for her patience, guidance and inspiration inside the classroom, and for her undivided love for her children and family outside of it. Upon retiring, she continued to educate and inspire through children’s books, games and toys at her quaint shop, Tattered Pages, located in downtown Sunapee. Brenda embraced “retirement” by keeping the books at basketball games, enjoying time on Perkins Pond and volunteering in the community. She wasn’t afraid to share her views on the current political climate, enjoyed witty banter with her brother and can still be heard yelling at the refs of her children’s sporting events. She will forever be missed by everyone whose lives she has touched.
Those left to cherish her memory include her husband, Mike; daughter Kali (Kirt) Hooper; son Shane Huff; grandchildren Jack, Gage, Harper and Sawyer; brother Brad Roach; family and friends; and the countless number of individuals who passed through her classroom.
Brenda was preceded in death by her parents, Bill and Alice Roach.
Friends and family will have an opportunity to pay their respects from 1 to 3 p.m. Sunday, July 1 at the Lake Sunapee United Methodist Church at 9 Main St., Sunapee. In lieu of flowers, memorials can be made to either a local charity or the American Cancer Society.
