Brenda Sue Provence
Service date is only in place due to go fund me terms and services. Our mother cannot be buried till the goal is made. We would like to lay her to rest as soon as possible.
Brenda Provence died at 11:20 pm in Mansfield Methodist Hospital on 6/15/2025. She died 22 years and one day after her Husband Michael and has left behind 3 daughters and 7 grandchildren. She was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer last year and it progressed rapidly and aggressively until it also took her liver. She tried chemo earlier this year and it was so hard on her body it almost took her on 3/16/2025. She over came that trial and decide to start physical therapy and stop the chemo. The chemo had already taken it's toll and 3 months later took her life. She did not have time to prepare to be laid to rest because she spent over a decade taking care of her own mother who has dementia and the funds are now left to her three daughters who struggle to make ends meet. She want's to be buried in Mansfield cemetery with her brother and laid to rest in the same plot as her husband who is still not been laid to rest himself. Please find it in you heart to help place them in their final resting place. Bless you all.
