Dear Chaim and family. I was sad to hear of Brenda's passing. Brenda loved her family and children more than the world itself. She was a devoted daughter and took wonderful care of her mother. Brenda cared about people and always tried to help when she could. An avid walker and talker on many subjects of interest. Loved to stay informed of the Jewish community and took pride in being an example of integrity and mentchlichkeit. I'm sorry I'm away and unable to visit but I'm thinking of all of you and will remember Brenda fondly. T'hi nishmata tzruror bitzror hachaim. May Brenda's soul be bound up in Hashem's eternal embrace and my you be comforted by good memories and inspired to perform mitzvot as she did in her lifetime.
