Brenda was the sweetest Lady❤️🥰 I first met her at Haverty’s. She was a customer. Then, she became so much more than a customer… she was my friend! I found her to be the most docile and patient ladies I had ever met. She was filled with such love! She counted on Bo and expressed that to me often … that she wouldn’t know what she’d do without him. I told her she wouldn’t have to. I know you were her angel here on Earth. I know you took the best of care of her.
I’m Certain of this as she told me. I’ll miss talking to her and I know you miss her terribly, Bo. We will see her again.. she’s gone on to be among those that had gone before her. How much sweeter Heaven became when Brenda made it to that beautiful place… where she will no longer need medication or oxygen. So blessed to have been in her presence …. so thankful to have known her. Bo, you and the family are in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless each and every one of you ❤️🙏🙌

Bo, words can’t express our condolences. You, David and I comforted one another at Alive Hospice. We keep you in our prayers and hope to see you again soon. I wish we had known Brenda—she must have been a wonderful person and your soulmate. ❤️
