BRENDA A. BRIGHTFUL, daughter of the late Dorothy Brown and George Howard, was born on September 2, 1948 in Baltimore, Maryland. God sent His angels down to help Brenda Brightful fly away home at the age of sixty-six after a battle with cancer. Brenda received her education from Forest Park High School. After graduation, she was a member of The United States Army and afterwards was employed with The Veterans Administration Outpatient Pharmacy for over twenty years. She then worked for The Department of Labor in Washington D.C. until retirement. But that wasn't enough, she came out of retirement to work for the Baltimore County Department of Social Services.
