Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 46 | Oh NO! My goodness, me too. I am in tears. Brenda (and Jim) pulled me out of the doldrums more than once. My prayers are with Her family and all the close friends she saved, helped and well...was just there for with a kind word or a laugh.
I simply dont know what to say as I am so new to this. Please feel my earnest heartfelt blessings and use my tears to water the flowers and brightness that IS Brenda! She lives on here,
