Autumn and Blaine Kopeck are saddened to announce the unexpected passing of their mother Brandi Lynn Kopeck on June 29, 2023 at the age of 45. Brandi was born February 17, 1978 in Lloydminster, Sk to Brenda Andrews and Frank Racz. Brandi and her brother Corey were lovingly raised by Lauri and Robert Harding of Calgary. Brandi moved to Lloydminster in 1999 and in 2001 studied to become a dog groomer in Leduc, AB. As her passion and skills grew Brandi became an exceptional dog groomer and went on to run a successful grooming business from the family home for upwards of 16 years where she met and became longtime friends with many of her grooming clients. Brandi is predeceased by her birth mother Brenda as well as her adoptive parents Lauri and Robert. She is survived by her children Autumn Kopeck of Lloydminster, Sk, son Blaine Kopeck of Sherwood Park, AB, brother Corey Harding of Vernon, BC and many aunts, uncles, cousins and loved ones. The family will be holding a private celebration of life in lieu of a public funeral service. You’ll Meet Me in The Light I know that you can’t see me, but trust me, I’m right here. Although I’m up in Heaven, my love for you stays near. So often I see you crying, many times you call my name. I want so much to touch your face and ease some of your pain. I wish that I could make you see that Heaven indeed is real. If you could see me now, how much better you would feel. But I promise you when the time is right, you’ll step out of the darkness and meet me in the light.
