Brynda attended Enid Beauty College graduating in 1995 and started Hair by Brynda shortly after where she worked up until February of 2015 and her daughter Brandy still continues to operate her shop today. She married Adam Row November 13, 2004 in Enid and they blended their families, her three children and Adams’ twins, Hunter and Brandon building their lives together in Covington. Family was most important to Brynda, she was a very active supporter of her children and grandchildren’s activities, never missing a ballgame, school program, Chases cheer competitions, or Hattie’s dance recitals. She loved her church, Lucien United Methodist Church where was active on several committies, served as president of Agape Circle, helped with bible school and was always ready to help where she was needed. Brynda enjoyed going to the casino with her mother and friends, she enjoyed ‘girls night’ with friends, Cindy and Annie, but what she cherished most was spending time with her family, especially her “grandbabies.”
