Love you Mrs.B!

Linnie we love you and our hearts are broken along with yours. Heaven gained an Angel! We will miss you Bren!

So sorry to learn of Brenda's death. Always thought of her as a friend. She was so nice just like her Mom.

We are all so deeply saddened by this, but so proud to know that she was a part of our lives. Mr. Lenny, we hold you and your family in our hearts and prayers at thus most difficult time, may God Bless You.

Trip to Floyd today to honor my friend BRENDA Merida. BRENDA, you were always so kind and I truly loved seeing you each visit we had. You and Lennie showed the world what true love and a great marriage is all about. I looked forward every year to receiving your Christmas card which always had a personal handwritten note. Rest In Peace, dear friend. You will be missed.

Len, my sincere condolences. Brenda was a dear friend through school. Her Dad and my Dad were friends in high school and shared a love of classic cars. I was envious of the 40 Ford that Brenda got to drive some. We will all miss her. David

My deepest sympathy to you and all of your family. I am totally shocked and at a luss for words.
