Brittany Elizabeth Mancini

We miss Bentley's mommy, Brittany!

Brittany, Bentley is now 6 months old. The ladies love him. Especially his beautiful blue eyes, that he got from you & Ben. He is 15# now. We are taking good care of him, the best we know how. He is still on the same formula. The pediatrician said they will have him start on fruits and vegetables, after his appointment, this month. He is getting stronger. His head control is much better. He is not sitting up on his own, not rolling over yet & no teeth, but slobbering alot. He is sleeping better at night, 6-7 hours. He has had visits with your mom & gram, Aunt Karen & Uncle Bob, Sammy, Aunt Kathie & Aunt Diane, Aunt Clara & Aunt Lulu. Miss you! Love, Sharen XX OO

Happy 1st Mother's Day in Heaven, Brittany. We miss you very much! Love you, Sharen XX OO

Hi Bentley your grandpa Sam had a .birthday on May 8th he shared this birthday with cousin Tommy we have a lot of double birthdays in our family your great-grandpa Sam Mancini had a birthday the same day as aunt Judy's. Husband Dave and I see your Pappy George has a birthday the day after on May 9th lots of good people born in May your Pap Sam was a great guy. He loved to be outside he loved working on the farm with your great-grandparents am and helped him with the deer hide industry and driving trucks your grandpap Sam worked in construction in his adult life and did until the day he had a major heart attack and passed away we still miss him your Pappy Sam loved to ride pigs! can you believe it ?the family lived on a farm up in Smithton Pennsylvania for a while and you're great grandpappy bought and sold pigs and your grandpap Sam and his cousin George used to ride the pigs then they would come to the house smelling so bad your great grandma DD would make them strip down go down in the basement and shower forever till the smell was gone we would laugh
and laugh your grandpa Sam and his cousin spent a lot of time together they were like brothers and got into a lot of Mischief together when you are older you'll have to ask cousin George more about your grandpap Sam. His dad, you're great grandpappy Sam ,
bought him a white horse which he love to ride on the farm and one day we heard this pounding up the driveway and it was your grandpap Sam riding the white stallion stopping and rearing the horse up in the air just like you see the Cowboys on TV. He loved to wear cowboy boots and I bet he would have bought you a pair already.

Hi sweet Bentley,
Its been less than 3 months since your mommy passed away.
Even though the time she got to spend with you was short, you filled her heart with joy. We want to make sure you always know how much she loves you. You may not be able to see her but shes always with you in spirit.

RIP To My Mommy, Brittany E Mancini, 1st Mother's Day 2018, in heaven. Love, Bentley XX OO

Bentley, your mom would have been sooo happy to celebrate her first Mothers Day with you !!! I am sorry she is not here to do this but she is smiling down on you from heaven and is so proud of you !! Love, Keith and Theresa Jacobs

To Brittany: "1st Mother's Day '18"
This is so hard to write since we loved you and miss you so much, every day. We talk about you to Bentley, he is 5 1/2 months old now. We will never let him forget you, who you were and how much you loved him, so much! It's so cute how he sucks his 2 fingers, like your Aunt Kathie said you did. He is getting stronger every day! Making sounds, watching TV, following objects, & slobbering a lot, but no teeth! Love you forever girlfriend, Sharen & George Sakel, Bentley's "Bubby & Poppy"

Bentley I was there to watch your mother come into the world she was a beautiful little baby who had a rough start from the beginning she and her mommy your grandma Joey very sick when she was born but she fought like the fighter she was soon started screaming and kicking and we knew she would be okay she fought hard to get started just as you did her son your mama was praying and trying to get well to help you fight and get your life started and she did you are a beautiful little boy and she loves you so very very much your mama was the sweetest little girl with light brown curly hair and big blue eyes just like yours she had a smile and two little chubby cheeks would form you always wanted to pinch them she always wanted to please people she was a follower because she wanted to make everyone happy she grew up living with her grandma and grandpa up Pappy and DD and love them very much she was their little princess she and DD would spend the days together before she started school and they would come visit Aunt Joan almost everyday she loved coming to see Sissy and playing with my puppy Oscar she loved being with her DD because they would sneak and get some Reese's Peanut Butter Cups boy did she love those she loved coming over for Easter and she would play with her cousin Joanna and Ashley and their friend Emily they would hunt for Easter eggs and eat chocolate eggs and have fun playing games together those little girls were frequently together growing up. She loved to go to Chucky Cheese not so much for the pizza but she loved playing in the ball pit and then getting to choose a prize. But she was terrified of the Chuck-E-Cheese character that walked around the restaurant. She really like to watch Daniel Tiger and Barney. She would dance and sing with the Barney songs She was so cute her and Joanna doing dance routines. Your mommy was kind of shy she would always look for others for leadership were to tell her what to do and then she would follow she was a sweet girl.
Your momma love to suck on two fingers from her right hand DD would laugh and ask her are you getting chocolate milk out of them she would smile. She loved stuffed animals and had a room full. Often having trouble keeping her room readed upy.
She had a best friend in grade school named Ashley they didn't get to see each other much when Mom moved to a new school but she came to see your mama before the Angels took her to heaven and she remembered all the fun times they had together. Your mama was my goddaughter and I loved her like she was my own I know she is resting in peace and watching from above always know how much she loved you and that you are a part of a very caring loving family from Mommy and Daddy and we will be there to help you along path the path you must take. Love, aunt Kathie.

Chuck and myself hired Ben to do our garage. Ben brought this beautiful girl to help him out! I had the explicit joy of meeting Brittany and falling completely in love with this sweet and very thoughtful girl. Plus I found out that they were expecting a baby. I shared their joy! I'm honored that Ben brought her to our house and shared their love for one another for a day, I got to see their love for each other and the joy of just being together. Thank you Brittany for letting me see your spark for life and for being one of the sweetest people that I have ever met.

Brittany was so young to be taken away from her precious son I know George and Sharen will make sure that Bentley knows how much his Mommy loved him

You're in a more peaceful place Brit. You'll forever be missed

In loving memory of a Blessed mother .

R.I.P BRITTANY YOU WILL BE MISSED

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May she rest in peace...

My deepest sympathies for the loss of Brittnay. She was a loving mother to Bentley. Also was the love of Bens life. She will be truly missed.

I'm adding to the guest book because Bentley's grandmother, Sharen, said she hopes Bentley will one day see these messages. Even though I was Brittany's dad's cousin, she & her brother always called me & my husband Aunt & Uncle. After her dad died, we would take her places sometimes & she would stay over once in a while. We didn't see her that often after she started higher grades at school. We did go to her high school graduation. We loved Brittany & are broken-hearted that she had passed. She was a sweet & beautiful girl. I know she loved you Bentley. Aunt Judy & Uncle Dave

Sad that Brittany's life was shortened by a tragedy, God bless her.

I knew Brittany through my cousin Alyssa and wanted to express my deepest condolences to all who knew and loved her. May God comfort you and give you peace. Ben, when you look in your sons eyes, may you continue to see and feel the love you shared with his precious mommy.

Our family lost a beautiful, special, young lady when Brittany died & went to heaven just 11 days ago. We will never let her Baby Bentley forget how much she loved him. And, we will take care of & love him the best we know how. Sharen(Bubby) & George(Poppy) Sakel, Marianna, PA.

Brittany you are an angel in heaven with your daddy, now. Many people came to see you at the funeral home. Your funeral was beautiful. We will never let your precious little Bentley forget about his mommy who loved him so much. He is growing every day. We love & miss you, Brittany! George, Sharen, Your Baby Bentley, Ms Brody & Skippy, too.

I am so sorry for your loss. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

So sorry for your loss I had the pleasure of meeting and teaching Brittany at WACTC liked her very much you and your son are in my prayers
