Brenda Kay Spears Head
July 24, 1951 - February 6, 2024
Brenda Kay Spears Head, age 72 of Pine Bluff, AR, passed away Tuesday, February 6, 2024, at her home. She was born July 24, 1951, in Waldron, AR to the late Tee and Freda Spears. She was an avid crafter who had a passion for sewing, crocheting, quilting, painting, and home designing. She was of the Baptist faith.
She received her education while living in California and also attended the Dumas School District. Throughout her earlier years in life, she helped her parents by picking cotton on just about every square foot of the Pickens Farm in Dumas. Brenda also helped her parents with all the household chores of cooking and cleaning all while her two younger siblings would undo it all in the blink of an eye, especially her baby brother Ricky. He loved to roll around in the dirt and then go running through the house leaving dirt everywhere. ''Rumor has it'' she used to tie Ricky and Beverly to a tree so she could clean the house.
Brenda went on to have one daughter. While raising her, she earned her Beauty School License and was a hairdresser for many years. She later began working for Simmons First National Bank for several years. While working for SFNB, she was also a very successful business owner. She was a Home Interior and Gifts Distributor and Faye Swafford Original Distributor.
