Brenda taught me as a little child my first big word: encyclopedia. Much later I taught my youngest daughter in the same way as I was taught; and was delighted to discover that she had bragged about this ability to her grade school. Thank you Brenda for helping me to inculcate the love of learning within my daughters. One never knows how far positivity can go. And while my physical won't be able to make it to her Homecoming services, my Spirit offers condolences to her immediate and extended families. -- long lost cousin Mark Collins

May you my friend R.i.p.Condolences to the family.Just sorry I couldn't make it.

A sweet lady that I have known since my childhood and whom I consider my BONUS Aunt. I have so many wonderful memories that I couldn't begin to list them all. Rest well Auntie, rest well ❤️❤️❤️

Unfortunately, the following words will not stop the pain, but they do give us hope. "Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord's word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words." ‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭4‬:‭13‬-‭18‬ ‭NIV‬‬ https://bible.com/bible/111/1th.4.13-18.NIV

In the meantime I will remember the laughs we shared. Bernadine Jones

Our hearts go out to your family. As we light this candle her love and spirit will continue to glow. Rest in peace from the Burton family Duke , Nikki , Diane and Darrick

I'm so sorry to hear about Brenda. I know how much her laughter & smile brightened your lives, because it did the same for me since having met her.

So sorry for your lost Carolyn Bootsie moten and Diane Winston Jones Chesterfield Va may God be with the family

We are sad to learn of Brenda's passing. The Cunningham/Coffey family has lost a jewel. She was simply just one of us as soon as she married Carl. She gave us many laughs and memories to cherish for a life time. Although this is a sad time, we rejoice that she is now resting in the arms of our Lord and Savior. We extend our deepest sympathy to family/friends and all who loved and knew her. Rest well my friend..Joy will come in the morning. The Mastersons (Bill & Marcia)

We are so sorry to hear of Brenda's passing. She surely will be missed by the Coffey and Cunningham families. She had a smile on her face that lit up the room when she walked in. Love her and miss her dearly.

May God comfort you and hold you close in the days ahead

I first met Brenda when they visited my home to view my Christmas decorations. She had a pleasing personality I instantly liked. Each year I looked forward to her visit with her devoted sister Chaldea and family. God knew it was time for her to see the beauty of heaven and be with Him. Brenda will be missed but not forgotten . My sympathy to Brenda's dear family. George Thomas

May God comfort you and hold yoy close in the days ahead

Wow. I don't even know where to start. Our friendship dates back to 1966 as good friends in college. We kept in touch throughout all of those years. I am so thankful to have had you as a friend. I am deeply saddened and heartbroken to lose you. Your friendship will remain in my heart forever. Rest in peace, my dear friend.

I had the privilege to know and work with Brenda She was such a sweet kind lady I enjoyed hearing about her cruises and where she was going on her next trip You knew you were going to have a Good Day when Brenda was coming to help at work that day. We had some great times and many laughs. I loved her and she will be missed. I was so sad when I learned of her passing. To her family May God comfort you and hold you close in the days ahead. She was a Great Lady

To Brenda's family: I surely share your deep sense of loss. Brenda and I were work colleagues for many years and remained friends through the years after my retirement. She was such a bright light and great joy with a smile that lit up a room when she entered. And that smile just got bigger when she married Coffey and started a new phase in her life. Please accept my condolences and know that my love and prayers are with you. I loved her, too. Mary DePillars, Richmond, VA

Brenda I will miss you but I know God has you and your suffering is done. Your cousin Deborah

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
