She held manager positions at: Lancôme & Guerlain - Dillard’s & Neiman Marcus Department Stores – Sugar Land, Dallas, & Plano TX. Brenda was Miss Texas for Lancôme. She was also an accomplished Gospel Singer and made appearances throughout America.
Brenda & her husband often talked long into the night during her heart-breaking journey – near the end Brenda firmly told David that all was well with her soul. David’s quote of his wife: “Brenda was a wonderful companion to this old & tired Vietnam veteran & I will miss her dearly – but her memory will live on as long as my heart is beating; and, in the hearts of her many friends and family.”
Brenda was preceded in death by her parents. She is survived by her beloved husband, David Renner; daughter, Jentry Kelley; step-daughters, Michaela Renner and Patricia Renner; grandson, Liam Kelley Lynch; sister, Patsy Fraley Davis; numerous loving aunts, uncles; cousins; nieces & nephews; and of course many, many friends & former colleagues.

David wishes to give special thanks to Hermann Memorial Hospice and their special Angels of Care – especially Lauren, Shantae, Christina, Tammy, Anthony, Stacie; and, Chaplains Hector & Royce – they made this devastating journey as peaceful as they possibly could.
