it is unfortunant that such a tradgedy has happened to someone that was trying to protect her daughter and family from such a horrible person. brenda was a close friend, as was her mother and father, who i knew well. she will always be remembered as a trusted friend and business associate. i grieve for the family and will miss her more than she knows. she is truly a hero to me and everyone else who knew her for giving her life to protect her family. what else is there in ones life to give it up for your family. give um hell brenda. you were one sassy lady.
