Aunt Brenda,
There are so many things…memories that come flooding to my mind. You were always there when I needed you. As a child you taught me to use my imagination…and what a gift that was…Whether it was moving me into my college dorm or moving me out of the ghetto. You were just always there. You taught me that you don’t need a lot of money to show people in your life that you love them…and you always did just that. You always hugged like it was the last time we would see each other. I miss you more than words can say. I know you will look in on me from time to time. I love you, give grandma, grandpa, and Jessy a hug for me. Until we meet again…love Tresa
Aunt Brenda,
You were always so welcoming to me. That meant so much to me and Tresa. Your smile was always so bright and your laugh infectious. Your cards so funny and your phone calls light hearted. We love you and miss you.
