Brenda was a bridesmaid in my sister's wedding in 1977! I remember her as a sweet, caring and fun person. Condolences to her family.

Brenda was my English teacher at Huntington East High School in the early 90s. She was one of the few truly down to earth people I've met in my life and to this day I think about what a great friend and teacher she was to me. My heart aches to hear of her passing. Brian Fuller - Emerald Isle, NC

Brenda and I were friends in school and remained in contact for many years. We lost touch about 10 years ago. I am so sorry for your loss and will always regret the time I missed with her. She was always a very special person. May she truly rest in peace.
