Brenda was born in Clemson, SC, spent her teenage years in Bath, OH. She settled in Atlanta, Georgia.
Brenda's early love of horses led her to the United States Pony Club where she found her true calling a s a youth educator. She touched thousands of lives through 40 years of coaching and judging across the country. She thrived on her interaction with young people and carried that into her professional work where she trained and mentored the front end team at Kroger, many of which were youth in their first job.
Brenda lit up every room she entered and always found a kind word for the people she encountered. She found joy all around her. Her sense of fun, mischievousness, and penchant for holiday costumes will stay in our hearts forever.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in Brenda's name to her two most passionate causes, the United States Pony Club and the World Wildlife Fund.
