Ann Marie, Jazzman, Dakota, and Larry and family I know your hearts are aching. Brenda was a wonderful woman. I had the pleasure to be her friend in grade school and to share her early life with her. She brought light and love and a warmth everywhere she went. Rejoice in her memory. And find comfort in the knowledge that you will be together again. Love and prayers to you all.

Aunt Brenda, I love you so much and I will never forget that smile of yours. I was with you and tried to be with you almost every day while you were in the hospital. Your smile sure lit up the room but my favorite thing about you had to be your laugh and sense of humor. I know you're lookin down on us and watching over us, but we're gonna miss you so much. Prayers to our family and to my uncle Larry ❤️
