Brenda Coleman

Brenda, It's your Aunt Debby here to say a final Good-bye. I have thought of you each and every day since this horrible tragedy and we lost you. I love you with all my heart and miss you terribly. It was easier when I knew you were at home first with your Dad, and then with your husband but now there is a hole in my heart where you were. I know that you are in heaven with Our Lord, and he is taking care of you now. They say "Only the Good Die Young" and you my love are a prime example of this. You will forever be with us cause you were so loved by all that knew you. People will talk of you and remiinisce about memories of you. I know I will. You have a cousin that looks so like you when you were a baby, she is about 3 yrs old now. We see you in her all the time. It brings a smile to our faces. You would have loved her so. I will always think of you fondly and smile for the time that we had together. You were so special to me, I know you knew that in your heart. You told me so the last time we saw each other at your wedding. You were so beautiful, and happy. I was content in seeing that. I would not have missed it for the world. So in closing may the brightest of stars in the heavens be looking down at us and know that we are looking up at you in them.
Love you forever
Aunt Deborah Lee Hubbard Herron

Brenda,

I can't believe that it has been a year. I have been thinking a lot about you these last couple of days. Everyone was asking me what we were doing for New Years Eve and Day. I told would say "Nothing staying home." I can't imagine doing anything on these days, but being with my family bc you never know with all the people out there what could happen. I kept telling my friends to call me when they got home so I knew that they were ok. I know that it has been a long time since we have seen each other, but I still miss you very much and will always think about our time together. I hope you know how much you were dearly loved and missed.

I can not believe it has been a year..
You are greatly missed.
Love Carma Ferguson

Hey Brenda,
It had been a really long time since I had seen you last. Almost 8 years I suppose. But I thought about you alot yesterday. You were in my mind all day on Wednesday and Thursday. I miss you so much girlie! I hate knowing that I will never get a chance to run into you somewhere.
You are so deeply missed! I hope your family is doing well. I can only imagine the void they feel for you.

Merry Christmas Brenda I miss you much. It was so weird not being able to talk to you this year. I called and talked to Mom, Dad, and Sheri and as we were talking a stray cat came walking through the back yard and reminded us of you. Love ya sis

I am so glad I was in Ohio for Christmas this year. It was a very special time. We played Family Feud on Christmas Day, I emceed the Aunts verses the GPS (grandparents), we went for pizza and a movie. Aunt Brenda laughed all the way through Alvin and the Chipmucks. We spent New Year's Eve Day hanging out and playing cards. These are precious memories I will always treasure of my aunt that I loved so much.

May peace comfort the family and friends who knew Brenda.... God heals in time... many blessings to you all.

as this book is drawing to a close...as Brendas' aunt&cousin,we take comfort in knowing that during her formative and growing years, Brenda had the father in Larry to lean on and a wonderful mother in Shirley to guide her as she grew into the bright and intelligent and strong young lady she became...Larry&Shirley are exquisite parents,
Anna&Sarah Pierson

My baby girl, she will always be although she grew up head strong and free to be herself, I love her and will always remember the little girl so tan and full of spirit, beautiful like an Hawiian flower she grew and blossomed.
Missing you always your mother.

From Grandma Hubbard(Ruby),even though Ruby has a hard time remembering things from minute to minute,when reminded of her granddaughter Brenda and looking at the photographs of her as a child she can bring a few of the good memories back and is saddened to be reminded that her granddaughter has passed on,grandma sends her prayers to Larry&Shirley and is grateful Brenda had two loving parents to raise her

You raised such a fantastic daughter, that is why we all loved her so much! Brenda always had a kind word and a great smile or a hug and loving words if I needed it, she gave me many of both. Your loss is great and my prayers and thoughts are with all of you. Brenda is still watching over all of us. God bless you.

I WILL MISS MY FIRST, FAVORITE, AND ONLY NIECE NAMED AFTER ME. I HAVE LOVED BRENDA DEEPLY SINCE THE DAY SHE WAS BORN. SHE HAS ALWAYS HELD A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART THAT CAN NEVER BE FILLED NOW THAT SHE IS GONE. WE ALWAYS HAD A SPECIAL BOND BETWEEN US THAT WILL ALWAYS BE. I WILL ALWAYS THINK OF BRENDA WITH A SMILE. I THANK GOD THAT SHE WAS IN MY LIFE.

Sorry for your Loss

Brenda was a great friend of mine growing up. She was smart, kind-hearted, and so special. I have many memories of Brenda, my sister (Mikki), and me, having fun all summer long. Brenda used to love New Kids on the Block. I remember some guys making fun of them once a long time ago at the Moose. Brenda went and had New Kids on the Block painted on her face. It was great, we all laughed, and she definitely had her say. You will be sadly missed Brenda.

To Brenda's family, my greatest sympathies.

I am deeply saddend by this horrible tragedy. Although it has been several years since we have spoken I never stopped missing you and thinking of you. I am very sorry your life ended this way and I am very grateful your life was full of happiness and you touched so many lives. When you smiled your eyes would twinkle. I am sorry that we will never see that again. You will be deeply missed and never forgotten. My heart goes out to your husband, your mom and dad, your sister and brother and all of your friends and family.
