Brenda was a very kind and compassionate soul. No matter how she would be feeling she always had a smile on her face. She will truly be missed by her church family at Faith Missionary Baptist.

Miss Brenda loved our daddy and we loved her for it – and much more. She was the epitome of “found family” we will miss her everyday.

was so very sorry to hear of Brenda’s passing. She was a faithful member of Faith Missionary Baptist Church. She was also involved in Damaritians Ourse to send shoeboxes full of needed items to children in other countries.
She will really be missed by her church family.
