Brenda will always be remembered for her hard work and dedication. She put her whole heart into any task or job that she worked. Her beautiful smile would brighten any room. She had love for everyone around her, especially her family.
Brenda, outside of work, enjoyed doing puzzles. She glued and framed them and gave the puzzles as gifts to her loved ones.
