I am so sorry to hear of Brenda's passing. I grew up on Midway right across the street from Brenda and we played constantly as kids. Her laugh was contagious. We had the best childhood ever and went to school together, from kindergarten through graduation in 1972. I was in Brenda and Paul's wedding, wearing one of the vivid pink taffeta dresses that one never forgets. I always loved Brenda's happy presence . . .There was once a visit that you all took to Kansas City and came by my house to visit. You three little boys sang several songs to me and you were so cute.
The last I saw her was at a KHS reunion. She was aware of some memory issues, but was as fun-loving as ever. We talked on the phone a couple of times after that.
There are some people in your life that are always with you . . . and I mean this sincerely. Brenda Kay Kinser was one of those people for me. God Bless her!!!
