Brandon we are very sorry to hear about your Mothers passing away. We will be praying for peace for you and your family.
God Bless you all.
Brandon, Haskell and family I am so
sadden to learn of Brenda's passing.
She was a beautiful woman and a
doting mother. Nothing pleased her
more than to spend time with you
Brandon. When she talked about you
and the young man you had become, her
face would beam with joy. She raised
one fine young man. Take comfort in
knowing she is no longer suffering
and is now pain free forever to rest
in our Saviors name. I love you both.
RITA and family
