So very sad we have lost a good friend. I worked with Brenda for many years at Millbrook until her retirement. I know she had deep faith in Christ and know she is in her eternal home. My sympathy and blessings to her entire family.

Bernard and family, So sorry to read of Brenda's passing. We remember her from our 4 years at Town Creek (1994-1998) as a quiet, humble spirit, yet one with a deep love for her Savior. Prayers for all during this time. - Dale & Peggy Hutto
