Dear Brenda's family, I am so sorry to hear of Brenda's passing. Heard about it at the BHS Class of 1969 50th Year reunion last weekend. Brenda was a dear friend when we were kids - grammar school, brownies and girl scouts. Such a lovely girl and woman.

I was so saddened to hear of Brenda's passing. The times I had the pleasure of spending in her company will always be remembered as loving and special. Brenda was an incredibly selfless beautiful woman with an upbeat personality whose happiness was gained simply by bringing joy to others. May she rest in peace and may your family be comforted by sweet memories.

Brenda was the first one to offer support when someone in our family was not well. Her wishes to my husband, Smitty, last week when he was hospitalized brought smiles an joy to us. She will be missed but we know the brightest star in the sky will be Brenda smiling on us and protecting us every night.
