The family will greet friends at the funeral home for the hour prior to service time at the funeral home. Burial will follow in Macon Memorial Park Cemetery.
Brenda Nell Jacks began her journey in Columbus, Georgia, the daughter of Gene and Raycille Jacks. While she was still a young girl, her family moved to Macon, Georgia. She graduated from Southwest High School and then began to raise her own family. She married Jeremy Shed and continued to raise her family as they settled in Lizella, Georgia. Anyone that knew her, loved and adored Brenda for her comforting personality and tender heart. She was also a tenacious fighter for her family, her goals, and in the end, her life.
Her warm and caring nature led her to the medical field. While still raising and supporting her family, she started a long and tough road at Middle Georgia State University. Brenda remained committed, graduated and worked hard as she captured her dream to help people in need as a Respiratory Therapist working at Navicent Health Medical Center. Brenda fought hard her whole life, but in the end it was her loving and tender heart that finally gave out.
Brenda is survived by her husband, Jeremy Shed, her two sons Bradley Mishoe and Brendan Shed, her mother and father, Raycille and Gene Jacks, her twin sister, Beverly Conner, and siblings, Jeanie Hudson and Allen Jacks. She also cherished her three nephews and three nieces, Bailey Jacks, Dakota Jacks, Arabella Jacks, Alayna Jacks, Matthew Jacks, and Andrew Conner; and a tremendous host of friends.
