Trenese Ann Brown (previously Bellamy; Williams)
Obituary

On April 20, 2020, God in heaven called Trenese Brown home. She answered with open arms and passed away peacefully at her home in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She was born on October 4, 1954, in Aberdeen, Maryland to Joan and Donald Williams Sr.

Trenese was married to Ronald Brown. She was a loving mother and survived by her children Francén B. and husband Antywone R. Sanders Sr., Dubuque Iowa, Givonn M. and husband Robert D. Logan Sr., St. Paul, Minnesota, Theodore C. Williams, Minneapolis, Minnesota. She is also survived by her siblings Donald Jr., Mark and wife Deborah Hancock-Williams, Kirk Williams, Justin and wife Julia Williams, Jon Williams, Alan and wife Berthe Williams, Jean Williams, Stacie and husband Leonard Crawford. Trenese was preceded in death by her parents.

Trenese had a loving heart for children and all whom she took care of. She would often take them on exciting adventures around the Twin Cities. They lovingly called her Nana. Her grandchildren JoVanté M. Williams, RoyAle J. Williams, Makayla F. Logan, Robert D. Logan Jr., Qurrihya L. Sanders, Quanihya G. Sanders, Antwonette T. Sanders, Antywone R. Sanders Jr. and great-grandson Sky D. Williams loved their Nana dearly. Their love for her has etched memories in their hearts forever.

Like all of us, Trenese had both struggles and glory in life. She embraced God’s word:
2 Corinthians 12:9. “And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”

Trenese attended the University of Minnesota. She held various professional positions during her lifetime including Childcare Director at Halle Q. Brown Community Center in St. Paul, Minnesota and continued to offer private daycare throughout the years. She was an avid reader, writer, and enjoyed cooking, family gatherings and time with her friends.

If Trenese could personally say goodbye to each of us she would squeeze your hand or hug you and say, "I love you and will see you later - don't worry about me, I am just fine". 

Due to social distancing, her celebration of life will be scheduled at another time and place yet to be determined.
