Beverly, Shelly and family, I am so sorry for your family's loss. It's easy to see by the many, comments on here and social media that Brenda was loved by many and will be truly missed by all who knew and loved her. I'm sorry I wasn't able to get reaquainted with her as I have both of you recently. Being your sister, I know I would've loved her too. Hang on to all those precious memories you both have of your dear sister, and they will carry you thru this difficult time. Thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Love, Mona B.

I have always been proud to say I have 5 powerful female best friends, and Brenda is on that list. Not only was she kind, beautiful, and sweet, but she was secure, powerful, educated, intelligent, and successful. This is too soon for her to be gone. She is too important in my life, and this loss to all of us who know her is devastating. She is a role model and a pillar to women everywhere.

I worked with Brenda for many years at Acxiom and was on the team that interviewed her in her return to Acxiom to become a solutions developer. She knocked that interview out of the park and was a terrific SD and teammate. She was also a genuinely good soul who I was proud to know. She will be deeply missed. My heartfelt condolences to the entire family.
