Dear Brestovansky Family,

Mrs. Brest was one of the best neighbors anyone could’ve asked to live next-door. When we moved into the neighborhood over six years ago, she welcomed our family. From there our children, Abby and Ben, were frequent visitors to Mrs. Brest’s home. Her friendly smile and kind heart always shined through during our many conversations. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your families. Horizon will not be the same without Mrs. Brest.

Take good care,

The Johnson Family
