Brenda was a fun loving and caring person. She spent her time being devoted to family and friends, always welcoming visitors with coffee and sweets ready. Many called her mom, but none could compare to her grandbabies. They were the love of her life. If she wasn’t relaxing with a cup of coffee, she could be found playing in her garden or loving on her cats.

She is also survived by her grandbabies, Kristen, Mason and wife Victoria, Preston, Heaven, Kennedy, Caleb, Hunter, Zachary, and Camden; her great-granddaughter, Sofia; and soon to arrive great-grandson Braxton. Brenda is also survived by many special aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Brenda and her family would like to extend a special “Thank You” to the nurses and aides with Hospice in the Pines in Lufkin, Texas and Providence Home Health and Hospice in Sugar Land, Texas for the loving care and comfort they provided
