My heart goes out to your Family Brenda. Although I don't know what it's like to lose a mother, I know what it's like to lose a son and a best friend, and someone you love like no other.

Brenda entered my life for a Reason, stayed in my life for more than a Season, and will remain in my heart for a Lifetime.
The love she spread was far-reaching, her laughter contagious, her advice no-nonsense, and her friendship beyond compare.
May the many happy memories of her daughters and grandchildren comfort them in the days to come.

I think if she could have, she'd have called out to those precious to her - “Look at me” !
I believe she entered Paradise, with a dazzling smile - and will continue to warm your hearts with...

Brenda,
You were truly one of the closest and most valued friends I have ever had. You were there for me when I was down, and shared my triumphs. Life will not be the same without you. You were truly one of a kind. I will miss you for all of my days. Rest easy in the gentle arms of our Lord dear friend. You, above anyone else, have certainly earned it.
