Edgar and I are saddened to hear of Brenda's passing. She was such a wonderfully sweet person and friend, always smiling and friendly. So, many good memories of our times together before and after our marriages, we always had such a good time together. She will be missed, but she will always be in our hearts. Please accept our condolences, prayers, and love during this hard time.
Sincerely yours,
Edgar and Jean Hood
