Thank you for all of your kindness. She was a very loving and kind person. She wss filled with anger in the end but that’s not who she was most of her life. Things comments were a very nice surprise.
Thank you all
Christy Derr
It’s probably been 17 years since I last saw Brenda – but she has always had a positive impact on me since. I remember the fun we had at Burt Ford, at Pinehurst Country Club, and our escapades in the piano bar Sing- Sing.
I still hold on to all the advice you gave me – I think of you often, and always will. And I still wear the perfume, Tresor!
My heart goes out to Rick, Jason and Christy. I am deeply sorry for your loss – I wish I would have found out sooner; Brenda was amazing.
