Brenda was born September 12, 1952, in Leesville, Louisiana and passed away March 15, 2023, at the age of 70. She had the heart of a true caregiver and loved people, children, and Jesus. For a time, she owned a daycare and also cared for children in her home. Brenda’s dogs held a special place in her heart, and she loved many kinds of animals including squirrels, deer, and birds. It was easy for her to see the good in people and her friendly nature meant that she never met a stranger. Her family meant the most to her, and she showed them what it is to be a fighter as she tenaciously fought COPD for many years.
Brenda was preceded in death by her parents, Gill Roy McDonald and Loraine Hall McDonald and siblings, Doris Jeane, Roger McDonald, and Sharon McDonald.
Those left to cherish her memory are her husband of 52 years, Charley Brannon of Bossier City, LA;
son, Christopher Brannon of Bossier City, LA;
daughters, Christina Derrick and husband Christian of Shreveport, LA and Crystal Brannon of Bossier City, LA;
grandchildren, Chance Roberson, Jarod Brannon, Jacobie Brannon, Gage Botts, and Kyle Jones II;
great-grandchildren, Aleysia Smith, and Jaisley Renee Brannon;
sister-in-law, Gwen McDonald of La Salle, TX;
and a host of extended family members.
