Dear Brenda,
Even though I never met your mother I have met you many times, in the company of my little sister Barbara, and was always impressed with your endless energy and your happy smile; you are an amazing woman, knowing how life has handed you many challenges. I wish you all the best for this difficult time, coping with a big loss. My condolences to you and your daughters.
Sending you sunshine!

My sympathy to the family. I remember your mom being wheeled to my moms room at RUH and then later they were in the same room and your mom would be happy when I was there because I always talked to her too as I know you talked to my mom.
Due to a previous commitment I won't be able to be at the funeral, but my prayers are with you at this time.

All our sympathies to you Brenda, Brooklyn and Berlin. Your mom and grandma was so much a part of your lives, and so famous for her generosity (and that bread!!), that even though we didn't know her that well, we feel we've lost a loved one too! Wishing you comfort in all the many precious memories. Barbara and family. And everyone in the dance group.
