Mrs. Brenda Fay Nash, age 76 of Sparta, passed away at 3:15am on Wednesday, November 4, 2026 at NHC of Sparta.

Brenda was born August 28,1950 to the late Frankie Lowell and Edwina Rich Nash. She was a retired CNA with NHC Sparta. She enjoyed upcycling old clothes into new items, including new outfits, pillow cases and purses. There’s a good chance she was listening to Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton while doing so. Brenda loved Autumn with all of the beautiful colors on display in the Upper Cumberland. She was always ready for a picnic with her late husband Roy, as long as it did not interfere with her daily appointment viewing of The Young and the Restless.

In addition to her parents, she is also preceded in death by her husband Roy Nash who died February 12, 2011.

Surviving family members include her children, Douglas (Kanetta) Martin, Shelly Martin, Denise “Pinkie” Martin and Greg, Tina “Dooley” (Isaac) Blaylock

Grandchildren: Michael Martin, Samantha Kirby, Brent Dillon, Shellene Boggs, Natisha Clouse, Blake Clouse, Allie Young, Monica Young, Hunter Martin, Abigal Martin, Brayden Bergthal, Makenna Blaylock and Waylon Blaylock
