I worked with Brenda at Westover Hills Elementary School and at The Youth Discovery Academy of St. Paul's Baptist Church for many years. Brenda loved to nurture and teach children. She was dedicated and devoted to making a difference in the lives of every child she met. She was funny, caring, lovable and she enjoyed life to the fullest. No doubt she is teaching a child in Heaven right now! Teach on Brenda! C Foy Moses

May Peace Be Unto The Morton Families.

I always loved Brenda and cared for her Aunt Marie

Ms. Brenda, You were a force for good in this world! It's hard to believe you are gone as you were so full of life on this earth. You cared for the children you taught in and outside of the classroom. When you weren't teaching you were working with election protection and drove countless people to the polls. You were a foot solider for civil rights, using your God given talents and your voice to stand up for those who crossed your path. I am honored to have know you and called you my friend. It will take more than one of us to fill your shoes and the many hats you wore. I know you are at peace with the Lord, but we will still miss you. Love Always, JP

Aunt Brenda, you really got me with this one. I'll miss you at ALL my events at my house. Dancing on everyone and telling me to play Solange song!! I hope you are resting easy.. I'll never forget you! Love you forever!!

Bren, you knew me and my heart and how I will miss you. Love, Steph!

I worked with Brenda at Westover Hills when she substituted. When Brenda arrived everyone knew she was there. She made her presence known. She was a joy to work with. I'm offering my sincere condolences to her family and friends at this difficult time. Ms. Hunt

Brenda was such a loving, kind and caring person and she showed her love to many. She had a heart of gold. She was my friend and I will miss her dearly. Brenda will always and forever hold a special place in my heart and she will never be forgotten. Love always, Ms Hill

Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
