Brenda Ogle Obituary
She was a lifelong member of Travelers Rest Baptist Church in Spotsylvania where she had served as Treasurer and Sunday School teacher. She was a member of the Women's Mission Union there as well as the worship choir and she helped to start an annual fall bazaar that still occurs each year. She worked as a medical billing specialist for many years with family practices and surgical groups. Outside of her convictions, Brenda had a flair for living life loudly. She loved shopping both with and without purpose, could be counted on to sing along no matter what, and rarely passed up the chance to be the life of the party. She enjoyed being surrounded by people and made sure her presence was felt in any room she entered. She was a woman of strong opinions and even stronger resolve. Stubborn by nature and proud of it, she met the world head-on and never retreated. She didn't leave you unsure of where she stood on an issue. She was a formidable opponent in any debate and always left an impression.
Brenda was a wife to her high school sweetheart, a mother to a daughter, a second mother to a son-in-law, a Nana to two granddaughters, and a friend to all who were willing to be befriended. She tenaciously held tight to her family, friends, and her beliefs.
She leaves behind her daughter, Shayne Jones (RJ), granddaughters, Jessica and Amanda, and her sister Fonda Shelton.
She was preceded in death by her loving husband of 54 years, David Ogle, and her parents, James "Dumpsey" Wright and Elsie Scott Wright.
She leaves behind three girls who know how to be strong women because of her influence. She will be missed.
A graveside service will be held at 11:00 am on Saturday, February 28, 2026 at Travelers Rest Baptist Church, 6823 Partlow Rd., Spotsylvania, VA 22551. A celebration of life will be held immediately following the service at Brenda's home.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the education fund at Travelers Rest Baptist Church.
