Brenda M. Gilliam

I am so very sorry for your loss and ask God to hold you even more close than usual.

Brenda is such an inspiration - her ability to work and take courses while caring for her mother, family and battling cancer left such a strong impression on me. Beyond that, she was ever-thoughtful and so much fun to spend time with. I feel lucky to have known her, and her beautiful spirit will live forever in our hearts and minds.

Aunt Brenda was a warm, genuine, big-hearted woman who also had a great sense of humor. I enjoyed the visits my family took to visit Brenda and her family. She went to great lengths to treat those in her circle with the utmost care. We will all miss her but her spirit will live on through the people she touched & inspired. Love you, Brenda!

Bud, Sorry to hear about Brenda. While I didn't know either of you well, I do remember your visit to Ohio at Tari's graduation, and how nice you both were. God Bless you and your family.

I have so many wonderful and loving childhood memories of my cousin Brenda and too few as an adult. Although our visits as adults were terribly infrequent, the childhood bond stood fast whenever our paths did cross. My sincerest condonlences and love to those who were fortunate to be closet to her. She will be terribly missed, but not forgotten.

When I think of Brenda, the word 'genuine' comes to mind...
My heart goes out to her family and friends during this time.

My aunt Brenda was such a wonderful, caring and loving person. She was so smart and funny and I will forever miss her smile. She brightened my life and will forever be in my heart.

A truly wonderful person. Smart, funny and caring. Brenda will be greatly missed. Prayers for comfort to family and friends.
