Brenda Ellen Thomason, a beloved member of the community who was known for her unwavering faith, creative talents, and boundless love for her family, passed away on February 15, 2024. The world said its goodbyes to her on that day.
This expanded tribute to Brenda, who was born in Cartersville, Georgia, on November 7, 1951, celebrates her life by reflecting on her contributions to Narroway Baptist Church, her passion for sewing, and the indelible impact she had on the lives of those who in her immediate vicinity.
Early Life and Faithful Service
It was on November 7, 1951, in Cartersville, Georgia, that Brenda Ellen Thomason was born to her parents, Daniel and Helen Thomason. This marked the beginning of her journey. In the course of her upbringing by Raymond and Lestea Thomason, Brenda developed a profound sense of faith that would eventually serve as a compass throughout her life. She devoted herself to the Lord and Saviour by becoming a devoted member of Narroway Baptist Church, where she maintained an unwavering commitment to the church. One of the ways in which Brenda demonstrated her profound connection to the community of her faith was through her service as a devoted servant.
Talents and Creative Passion
Not only was Brenda well-known for her devotion to her spiritual beliefs, but she was also renowned for her extraordinary talent in sewing. Due to her exceptional abilities in crafting and the creation of stunning pieces, she became a much-loved figure among her family and friends. When Brenda was able to share her craft with other people, she was able to form a connection with them through the art of sewing. Her inventiveness was not only reflected in the things that she made, but also in the positive energy that she brought to those who were in her immediate vicinity.
A Joyful Presence
The contagious laughter that Brenda Thomason possessed became a distinguishing feature that was immediately recognisable to those who were familiar with her. The fact that she was able to maintain a positive attitude and spread happiness was a source of solace and warmth. There was an atmosphere of love and camaraderie that was created by Brenda’s joyful presence, which resulted in her becoming a treasured individual in the hearts of many people.
Beloved member of the family
Brenda had a profound affection for her family, which was the centre of her being. Despite the fact that Brenda was a wonderful mother to her daughter, Miranda Nolte, and her son, Justin Lewis, her nurturing spirit extended to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren during her lifetime. Kinsley Nolte, Nicholas (Alicia) Nolte, Kayla Lowe, Jeremy Payne, Ellen Wallace, and William Wallace were among the people who were the beneficiaries of Brenda’s boundless attention and affection. Amelia Wallace, Brenda’s great-granddaughter, passed away, which added a touching note to the narrative of her life in general.

The death of Brenda Thomason has left a void that will be keenly felt by her surviving family members, including her daughter, her son, her brothers Ronnie (Darlene) Thomason, David Thomason, and Kenny Thomason, her grandchildren, her great-grandchildren, and her cousins Lynn Shipp and Joan Ratteree. The people whose lives Brenda touched will always cherish the memories of her laughter, love, and creativity. These memories will keep them alive forever.
Graveside Service
On Thursday, February 22, 2024, at 2:00 PM, a graveside service will be held at the Narroway Baptist Church Cemetery to celebrate the life of Brenda. The Reverend Jimmy Tibbitts will preside over the ceremony. Friends, family, and members of the community will have the opportunity to come together and celebrate Brenda’s life during the service that will bring them together.
Conclusion: A Legacy of Faith, Love, and Creativity
In the process of remembering Brenda Ellen Thomason, the community reflects on a life that was lived to the fullest—a life that was characterised by unyielding faith, boundless love for family, and a creative spirit that left an indelible mark.
