Obituary for Brenda Joyce Gibson
Brenda was born on November 15, 1950, in Pasadena, TX to Fred and Ruby Leach. She passed away on November 14, 2023, in Hornbeck, LA. Brenda worked for many years for the Vernon Parish School Board as a cook and as a Paraprofessional working with special needs children. She was an avid gardener and loved to care for her rose garden. Brenda was one of the most genuine souls you would ever meet. It mirrored Jesus after all. She truly lived to serve others, prayerfully walking beside the suffering, rejoicing in the highs and in the lows, carrying a heavy burden for the lost, and always lending a helping hand to those in need. When family was gathered at her table, she never sat down to rest and made sure everyone had a heaping pile of food on their plates. You would hear her famous words, “Is that all your gonna eat? Now getcha some more.”
Brenda was a prayer warrior like no other. She was the greatest comforter, going alongside you through the deepest of hurts and celebrating the greatest achievements, and gently pushing you back in line when you weren’t doing things right. Her legacy lives on through her family and friends. She greatly impacted the Kingdom of God.
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled and do not be afraid.” John 14:27
Brenda was preceded in death by her parents, husband, Carroll Gibson, grandson Bo Scroggins, and brothers, Hollis Leach and Terry West.
She is survived by daughters, Samantha Scroggins (Vernon), Sabrina Langston (Jimmy), and Stephanie Pozas (Arvin);
sisters, Sandra Habingreither, and Kathy Prichard;
grandchildren, Kaci (Jacob), Kelby (Treazure), Brett, Kaley (Shawn), Jonathan, and Summer;
