There have been many days now but her memory still stands strong. I love her and miss her very much. Michelle, she was so special always knew exactly what to say. "She was so sexy". That just cracks me up. We will be okay and get through this together. I love you.

Michelle,
I am so sorry to hear about Brianna. She was a special girl, very smart and always willing to tell anyone, especially adults, exactly what she thought. You were her greatest champion. I admired the way you fought to give her the best. My thoughts are with you. Take Care.

One of our memories: Brianna sleep overs with us: Matt making the two of them a Root Beer/Coke Floats and he served them with straws! She looks over at him and says, "A straw?" "You need to get rid of that straw and drink it like a real man!"
We still laugh about that! Brianna was a very intelligent girl and full of herself! I'm so glad we have those sleep overs to hold on to.
All our love, Matthew & Sheila

We only saw Briana a few times and she was always bubbley. I know she was very special to Pat and Cecil. One of the hardest things to face in life is the loss of a child. Cherish her memory and let it live on. We know your sadness and our thoughts are with you.

In the few times that I got to spend time with Brianna I saw her to be a great young person. She could always make you laugh; she had a carefree attitude about life. My sincerest prayers and thoughts are with the family at this time.
