Dear Kim & Chris & family,
Your mother was a good friend as well as a cousin of Melba, my mother. The 5 Gould girls were close to the McCready girls. That lasted all their lives. We will miss her – such a great and gracious lady.

Rest peacefully Brenda.
You were such an amazing woman. Everything you set your hand to was perfect. Cooking , baking, sewing, gardening, even furniture reupholstering.
You raised your children well, and taught them to be such responsible, caring and talented individuals. You always presented yourself with such grace and beauty regardless of how sad or sick you felt. I am very sad to lose you, You have been a wonderful support and an amzing Mother in law. You will remain in my heart forever, but one thing that brings a smile to my face even in my sadness is knowing you are in the arms of your husband and your son again. I will cherish my memories for a lifetime Brenda. Rest in peace.
