Rest in Peace, Brenda.

My condolences to Brenda's family and all who were close to her. I only met Brenda a couple of times, but you couldn't help but like her. She had a fun loving personality, and you knew she cared very much for her kids. It is sad to lose someone so young, with so much to look forward to. Rest in peace, Brenda.

Living so far away and only seeing Brenda a few times made it hard to really get to know her, but I know she was loved by lots and will be greatly missed. I remember one time when you were in town, we had all gone to the park in Milan, I don't think Abby was even 2 yet...we had a blast...I live right accross from that park now, and drive past it daily, I will think of Brenda each time i pass it, and the fun all of us had that bright, sunny afternoon. To Riley and Abby...I can't even imagine what must be going through your young minds. Stay strong and know that your mother will always be with you...keep her memory alive in your heart. God Bless the loved ones left behind to greive.

I will miss Brenda's wise cracks! She was a big fan of the Green Bay Packers and had no problem teasing me about the Vikings! Brenda had a very fun spirit and she will be missed.
