Longtime Post business copy editor Brenda Walsh dies at 62

Brenda Walsh, longtime chief of The Post’s Business section copy desk, died Monday after a battle with cancer. She was 62.

“Brenda Walsh loved the New York Post, but Brenda would want everyone to know that she loved golf even more,” Post Business Editor Rich Wilner said.

John Crudele, whose columns Walsh edited for more than 20 years, said, “She always said she could beat me on the course. And she was right — although I never admitted it.”

Walsh’s survivors include her brothers, Kevin and Frank Walsh, and sisters, Eileen Walsh, Catherine Sonderquist and MaryAnn Sullivan.

Visitation will take place Thursday from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Westchester Funeral Home in Eastchester. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10 a.m. Friday at the Annunciation Church in Crestwood, with burial to follow at Mount St. Mary’s Cemetery in Flushing, Queens.
