I met Brenda last year. She was sick but could get around. I would go visit with her with niece. I had just lost my husband and meeting her and her love and comfort to me was like I had met an angel. She was so loving and we laughed she loved her lord and was ready to go be with him. Strong will but the lovingest lady I had met in years and she came along right when I needed her. I love her and will forever be grateful for her kind words and prayers . She's in heaven rejoicing and happy and god will be glad to get this angel. I will never forget you, you the wind beneath my wings. With all my love Teresa
