Trey and I sat and talked about a brighter time growing up going to school together and all the silly and sometimes very serious conversations on the ride from MEMA to Dozier in the afternoons.The memory gallery is beautiful ...Ballard would love it! You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Ballard,
I loved
viewing the Moving Memories video of you! What a beautiful baby,child, teenager and mother I saw in those photos.
I have so many precious memories of you and will miss you so much!!! I will never forget what a helpful and kind student you were to others at Dozier and how respectful you were to my Dad at the dog park only a year ago. We had so much fun with you, your dog and your handsome sons that beautiful day!!!
You will never be forgotten and missed
always!!!
Love,

I am so shocked and saddened to hear about Ballard. I have such sweet memories of such a funny, silly, and warm young lady on our MEMA dance team and in class. I haven't seen Ballard since just after her oldest son was born. My deepest condolences to Brandon, her parents and her children. I can't imagine what you all are going through. I hope so many of our prayers can begin to ease your pain just a little.
