I worked with Brenda for many years and just learned of her passing. She was very stylish, smart, poised and a force to be reckoned with. The last time I ran into her I was able to tell her that I sometimes liked to channel her style. She taught me how to style my hair in a French twist. She was a very talented knitter and would share her knitting projects with me. She said David was the proud recipient of her beautiful cardigans. Sending hugs to heaven Brenda...and a ball of merino wool yarn.
