Brenda was born September 14, 1943 in Florence, South Carolina to the late Wade and Winona Ham. After graduating from McClenaghan High School in 1962, she went on to marry Don Caudle and they had two children: Scottie Caudle and Jeff Caudle.

Brenda was incredibly kind and generous to those in need, and had a unique, special way with words that few could rival.
