She was married to James Tallent on October 3^rd in 1975 and together they have 3 daughters: Kimberly, Kelly, and Jessica. Brenda loved country and gospel music and enjoyed singing in her church choir. She was very quick witted and could make anyone laugh. Her favorite color was pink and you would rarely see her without her red nail polish and lipstick. You could always find her in the kitchen with a snack in the middle of the night, and her evenings were not complete without spending time in her rocking chair outside on the porch with a caramel frappe. Brenda deeply loved her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren, and always encouraged them to be faithful to church and live for God. She was preceded in death by beloved parents, Paul and Ozella Clemons; sisters, Gaynelle Gresham and Janice Shipley; brothers, Butch Clemons, Charles Clemons, and Leonard Clemons, and great-granddaughter Kamryn Michelle Garland.
