Swift journey my friend.
Went to school with Brenda but never knew her well. I remember how pretty she was. God bless her to rest. Sympathies to family.
Graduated with Brenda. So beautiful and sweet. God bless her family.
Brenda was the cute, darling little girl growing up across the street from me when I was a teenager. I don’t presume to understand the magnitude of grief she must have been feeling these last months, but as I have my own wonderful daughter, I can imagine. How excruciating for her it must have been. I pray she is rejoicing today, dancing across heaven with Chloe. My entire family is also praying earnestly that Abba Father embraces Brenda’s beautiful family and gives each one peace and comfort, as only He can give.
I am so deeply sorry for all the loss you have experienced this year. I pray God will give you peace in knowing she is happy again and with Chloe, for what you are feeling right now….she has been experiencing for months. Hold on to your wonderful memories until you see each other again. Gods peace to you and your whole family. Love you guys!
I worked with Brenda for a long amount of time. She always had a smile and a kind word for everyone. Love you Brenda my friend!!You and your sweet baby are together again. Doris God Bless you and your family during this sad time.
Uel, Doris, Becky, & Family: My deepest sympathy in the loss of Brenda. My heart is breaking for all of you and I am praying for all of you.
I knew Brenda because my daughter and Chloe were good friends who went to school together. I also remember Brenda as a cheerleader at T.C. Roberson. Brenda you were a wonderful sweet person with a caring heart for your family and patients. Praying for comfort and peace for the entire family.
Sorry to see such a nice lady have a terrible situation with her daughter, and then her untimely passing.
