Brandy Dana Barnett, 47, of Rison passed away on October 17, 2025, in Little Rock, Arkansas. She was born on October 20, 1977, in Pine Bluff, Arkansas and her life was a testament to love, family, and a dedication to her community.
Brandy was a cherished wife to Vince Barnett and a devoted mother to her children, Hunter Barnett (Kelsie) and Lauren Oliver (Chase). She was also a loving sister to Haley Cochenour and a treasured daughter-in-law to Judy Barnett. Brandy's spirit will live on in the memories of her many nieces and nephews and other family and friends, whose lives she touched with her warmth and kindness.
As a member of the New Home Missionary Baptist Church, Brandy found strength and support within her church community. Her faith was a guiding light in her life, influencing her approach to family and friends, who knew her as a constant source of joy and love.
Brandy had a passion for life that was reflected in her many interests. She found immense joy in spending time with her family, whether it was enjoying the warm sunshine at the beach or simply sharing moments at home. She had a special fondness for dogs, and her love for shopping often led to shared outings with loved ones, further enriching her vibrant life.
Though she faced the inevitable challenges of life, Brandy approached each day with grace and an unwavering belief in the power of love and connection. Her legacy is one of warmth, laughter, and a deep commitment to those fortunate enough to call her family and friend.
Brandy is preceded in death by her beloved parents, Cecil and Inez Hunter, who nurtured her with love and guided her formative years and beloved father in law Otis Barnett.
As we remember Brandy, let us honor her spirit for family and community, embracing the warmth she brought into our lives. Her memory will live on in the hearts of many, a bright star shining down on us from above.
