We are in such disbelief about Brooke. We remember our boys playing and swimming with Brooke and Abby. They are two different girls, but we always referred to them as one person - "Brooke and Abby", just like they called our two boys as if they were one person - "Kyle and Derek". There are no words to show how sorry we are. There is no way to know how you are feeling. We wish that we could take away some of your pain. Just know that all of Brooke's family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Jan, you've encouraged me through hard times and I hope you know by this that even though I never met Brooke, she has reminded me of how we are to take care of each other and not take our time with one another for granted. She demonstrated love by her sacrifice. Now those she loves must hold up each other in the absence of her and continue the example she set forth, to put the needs of others first and love one another.

My precious Jan, there are no words to express my sadness for the loss of amazing Brooke. My every thought is for you, Abbe, Kelly, Mike and the family. Please know I'll do anything you need, anytime, as you're more my sister than my friend. God is holding all of you in His hands, and I pray His precious Love and Grace will give you peace and comfort. Ever so much love to all of you! Jen
