Brenda Keilen

October 28, 1972 — July 7, 2025

Brenda Lee Keilen, 52, a resident of Fergus Falls, went home to the Lord Monday, July 7, 2025.

Brenda was born on October 28, 1972 to Ronald Marvin Fitzner and Lois Eldora (Timian) Fitzner in New Ulm, Minnesota. She attended Fergus Falls Public Schools and graduated in 1992. She then went on to attend college at South Central Technical College in Mankato.

After college she married Joshua Keilen and they had their son, Daniel. She became a stay-at-home mom and devoted her life to him. He was her world. We pray that her son, Daniel, always feels his mother's love.

She enjoyed a good book, music, being challenged by word search puzzles, and attending sporting events.

Preceding her in death were her father, Ronald Fitzner; grandparents, Marvin and Elaine Fitzner and Eldor and Frances Timian.

Brenda is survived by her son, Daniel of Fergus Falls; mother, Lois Fitzner of Fergus Falls; siblings, Jennifer (Matthew) Lindemeier of Norwood, Brian (Jen) Fitzner of Foxhome, Maggie (Kenny) Nash of East Grand Forks; niece, MaKenna; nephews, Josiah, Micah, and Wyatt; ex-husband, Joshua Keilen and his family, and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to: Daniel Keilen Account at Mid-Minnesota Federal Credit Union in Fergus Falls, MN.

Memorial Service: 2:00 p.m., Friday, July 25, 2025, at Trinity Lutheran Church in Fergus Falls, with visitation one-hour prior to the service at the church.
