Sweet Brooke, you were always so surprised when I told you how beautiful you are. You dismissed it with humor...you thought I was joking. But you were on earth and I'm certain you had lit heaven up like fireworks as you arrived! I'll never forget you, sweetie. I will be sure to tell Marie how much her mom loved her and wished for her to become everything she wanted to be in life. Til we meet again, dear friend...keep a watchful eye on us. Much love, Christie

Brooke is such a special soul, she always rugged on my heart, I have always loved that sweet, beautiful girl. She had a huge heart and beautiful smile and laugh. I always told her I loved her and wish she could see herself the way I saw her. Beautiful inside out. I will miss her dearly. Prayers for the whole family .
