“Brenda raised me and my brother for the majority of our lives. She was my best friend. I have truly never met a person like her, so full of kindness and hope.

“I am so grateful for her and everything she did. She never stopped fighting. She was there for everyone through thick and thin. She loved everyone no matter their faults.

“She loved to dance, loved horses and her farm. She loved to take care of people and help people. She was an extraordinary person.

“We are all gonna miss her so much but she is not suffering anymore and she is in heaven riding her horse and telling papaw how it is. She is with her son, my uncle Gary and her mom and dad and Aunt Gloria. She is with all of the loved ones who passed and all of her animals she's ever owned. I love you grandma, rest well angel.”
