Rebecca "Becky" Brainard (Olson)

Age 57, was born on August 25th, 1967, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and passed away unexpectedly at her home in Richfield, Minnesota, on March 21, 2025.

Becky was known for her quick wit, sense of humor, and deep love for animals. She had a big heart and cared greatly for her friends and family, always ready to lend a hand or offer support. She loved to crochet and wrote many poems from the heart. Her style was as unique as she was, with mismatched socks and earrings, stacks of bracelets, long nails, and a fondness for neon colors. Proud of her fiery red hair, she often embraced the title of "crazy redhead" with joy.

Becky was preceded in death by her husband, Jeffrey Brainard; and her parents, Polly & Gene Olson. She is survived by her siblings, Ramona (William) Stroman, Sue (Anthony) Bosquez, and Thomas (Maria) Olson; niece, Cassondra Olson; and great-nephew, Elias Hargrove. Becky will be missed immensely by all who knew her. A private Celebration of Life will be held at a later date.
