Brenda Kaye Ragsdale

Brenda Kaye Ragsdale, age 67, a resident of Lewisburg, passed away at her residence on Wednesday, August 12, 2026.

Born on October 5, 1958, in Williamson County, Tennessee, Brenda was the daughter of the late Billy James Ragsdale and the late Katherine Gladys Mosley Ragsdale. She worked as a caregiver at Belvedere Senior Living, where her caring nature was a reflection of the love she carried throughout her life.

Brenda enjoyed crocheting and especially cherished the time spent stitching alongside her daughter. She also loved traveling and made special memories with her daughter on trips to Florida and Memphis. A lung cancer survivor, Brenda faced life with strength and determination. Above all, her greatest joy came from spending time with her grandchildren. She had a heart big enough to love not only her own grandchildren but also those she welcomed into her life and adopted into her heart. Brenda’s love, laughter, and caring spirit will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

She is survived by her daughters, Casey Holt (Music), “Scooterbug,” and Stephanie Holt, “Baby Girl”; brothers, Billy Wayne Ragsdale, “Brother,” and Ricky Allen Hoover, “Lil Brother”; grandchildren, Eugene Carter Music, “Boog,” Aniya Rena Bullock, “AA,” Chevy James Moore, “Monkey Man,” Jax Lee Music, “Monster,” and Taylin Katherine Marie Holt Burrows, “Teddy Bear”; and special friend, Jeanie Shufelt.

Along with her parents, Brenda was preceded in death by her brother, James Allen Ragsdale, “Buck Wheat”; and sisters, Mildred Faye Hoover, “Party,” and Mary Katherine Smythia, “Mazel.”

Brenda’s memory will live on in the hearts of her family and all those who were fortunate enough to know and love her.
