Brenda, a sweet, gentle soul. If ever you met her you wouldn’t forget her. She loved with her heart fully wide open for God and others, especially her family. She had such a beautiful gift to sing, and she did it with joy and excellence. It was a treat to see her get excited. The smallest things excited her and to see her prance in that excitement was precious. She worked so hard to press through the barriers that kept her from being full flourishing. Brenda Joe Townsend is a remarkable person, a remarkable soul. Go rest high on that mountain. Your work down here is done. Go to heaven a shouting love for the Father and son. In remembrance of our beloved sister and extending condolences to her wonderful family.
