Secondly, you know her so well that you dont know that Tamme does not spell her name TAMMY. Also her name is BRENDA, not Bren, she uses Bren because when she was a stripper in Little Rock and Mel met her she was working the nightclub scene<br /> in Little Rock and Dallas and she did not want to be associated with "Brenda" any longer. On another note, Bess (may she rest in peace) was Mel's first wife and she was a fantastic lady. He meet Brenda and left Bess sadly. Brenda and Tamme were a package deal and Tamme's dad is still in Little Rock with the rest of Brenda's family. Brenda conned Mel into adopting Tamme without his knowledge...Yes, that famous stroke of a pen once again.

I found Bren to be the nicest and most generous person I have ever met. She is a great friend and a classy lady, and she surely knows how to throw a fun party!<br />I wish there were more wealthy people out there that truly care about the well being of less fortunate people: if there were, the world would be a better place. Wealthy people should learn how to live with both class, poise and elegance by emulating Bren. <br />Bret BocookBret K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07340202990855372261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-53677566473225450632010-08-21T16:59:19.471-07:002010-08-21T16:59:19.471-07:00Mama, I believe Mr. Sanders's name is Walter
