So sorry for your loss! I remember Brenda from years ago! I always kept up with her thru my sister Kathy Martin! She was such a fun lady! Praying for Erika!!
Brenda was a sweet lady and became a dear friend to us over the years. We were backyard neighbors. She loved taking care of her house and yard when she wasn’t taking care of her family or other’s family members. She loved little gardens and pot plants. We always tried to keep her old concrete water trough on our common property line full of flowers and plants for her to see when she pulled into her driveway. And she loved a good bonfire. Would let us neighbors use her big fire pit for a burn pile….. and would sit on her back porch and enjoy. We looked forward to her treat baskets for Christmas. She had a big, giving heart and will be missed by us all. You will be in our prayers Erica and we will be here if you need us…..🙏
Love, Lance & Diane Gaspard
It was sad to hear of Brenda’s passing.
Prayers 🙏 for the family.
Though I didn’t know you for very long, you were such a wonderful lady. Always smiling in a great mood. Loving to laugh and love and life rest in peace dear lady and see you on the other side
Dear Erica, Our daughter told us about Brenda. I was so shocked. She took care of my mom for several years. They had a few things in common but the worst
memory was the loss of Brock and the loss of my brother David. She taught me to can. She was a good cook, caregiver but mostly a dear friend. She will be missed!
Steve, Cindy, Steph, Jason and Layla.
