I am so very sorry for your loss. Brenda was indeed a special child. I knew from working at CHDC, & am certain she is in heaven with Jesus now. My mother was her living unit supervisor, Barbara Cauley. Brenda knew her & I believe loved my mother. She & my mother are now talking over the times they shared, what a blessing.

Louise: I'm so sorry to hear of Brenda's passing. She was special to so many people and there are no words I can think of to help the pain of losing someone so precious. As I told you more than once, you were an awesome sister/guardian/advocate for her. Not only Brenda and CHDC staff know this, but so does our Heavenly Father. RIP Sweet Brenda.

Louise, my heart breaks for your loss of Brenda, your special (angel) sister. She was so blessed to have you in her life just as you were to have her. Tonight, Brenda is whole and walking in the promised land with Jesus. What sights her eyes must be seeing right now. Although you know where she is I’m sure your heart breaks from your loss. My thought and prayers are with you Louise.

It looks like many important people in your family have already left this world. It's rewarding to see that your cousin, Brenda, has family members that care for her and continue to take care of her needs. Just want to say, I do not know Brenda or any of your family, but want you all to know we empathize with your loss and send you our sympathy, thoughts, prayers and blessings. We lost our 29 yr old granddaughter just a year ago and it continues to hurt terribly even though we know she's gone to be with her Lord and Savior. We miss her here. She was living in Arkansas at the time. We love AR and lived there for 24 years after retirement, my husband, having been born and raised there. Again, so sorry for your loss of a loved one.
