Morgart family,
I am so sorry about your loss. You were truly blessed with a beautiful gift from God. Releasing our loved ones back to God is the hardest thing we have to do here on Earth. Take comfort in knowing that the separation is only temporary and we will be together again in a glorious reunion, not only with our loved ones, but with our Lord and Savior, forever. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Dennis & Barb---I quite often read the Topeka news online and I cannot tell you how shocked I was to learn of Brenna's death this week. I couldn't hold back the tears while trying to make any sense of such a tragedy. Sometimes it's difficult to imagine how others feel and this was one of those times. I simply pray that our Father in heaven can console you and bring you comfort and peace because I believe that human words are not capable of doing so. Only the closeness of God can bring you the needed spiritual rest you need to find in this awful time of grief. But He can do it and I know you will seek Him. Just know I am thinking of you and will lift you up in prayer on a regular basis during these next days. Love in Christ, Richard Hicks

I knew Brenna from school. I was in the school musical, Curtains, with her. I have many great memories from that time. It's amazing how many people's lives were touched by Brenna. She knew how to bring people together in life and especially in death. She was an outstanding person and knew how to live each day to the fullest. She poured her heart into everything she did. She was such a beautiful person. I know she is home now, even of it wasn't the home I wished she was at.

I'm so sorry that I'm having to post on Brenna's obituary. This was to be the beginning of a new chapter in her life, not the end of her life. I know your faith is strong and that we know Brenna is with her Savior. She touched so many people in her short 18 years. Jaimie so enjoyed getting to know her on swim team and also being in the musicals together. As a mother, my heart aches for your loss, but as a Christian I know that Brenna is smiling down with that infectious smile of hers telling us not to grieve. Many lives will change for the better because of having known or known of Brenna. She was ans is such a blessing!
Peace to you.

Though I did not have the wonderful opportunity to teach Brenna, I had the pleasure of seeing her as she graced the halls of SHS. She truly did have a smile on her face each time I saw her. It was very evident that God shined in her life and that light touched others who called her their friend. Prayers for you and your entire family and extended Seaman community affected by her life. God be with us all even to the end of time and may Jesus hold us in the palm of His hand as we grieve the loss of such an amazing young lady.

For that dash represents all the time
That she spent alive on earth..
And now only those who loved her
Know what that little line is worth.
For it matters not, how much we own;
The cars..the house..the cash,
What matters is how we live and love
And how we spend our dash.
Brenna was such an amazing young lady. Many of us were blessed to have gotten to spend part of our dash with her in our lives. May your family find comfort in knowing Brenna is with our Lord and while here...she touched so many with her heart. I got to know Brenna from SHS band. What a great kid!
God Bless the Morgart Family. So sorry for your loss.
