So sorry for your loss Stambaugh family. I was in her son’s wedding as Marissa is one of my best friends. I met her there and then a year later when I came for the one year anniversary potluck. Though I only met Brenda twice I could tell what a very kind a generous person she was. I will never forget her making a pot of pulled pork for the potluck just so I could have something to eat when Marissa told her I was coming to town (I have food allergies and trouble with chewing tough foods). It touched my heart that someone who had only met me once would be that kind, but it sounds like that’s the kind of person she was. Sending prayers of peace and comfort to all those dear to her ❤️

Sending my love and heartfelt condolences to all, and wishing that the memories bring you comfort. I will keep you in my heart and my thoughts during this difficult time - Christine (Chris) Hughes.
