I will forever have great memories of Bronwyn, and will always have good stories to talk about. We had great times throughout the years together, and she was one of my first good friends in North Arlington when we moved here. She will never be forgotten, and will always be loved. May you rest in peace Bronwyn. Much love to you and much love to the Giglio and Johnston Family

Our sons became friends in the third grade and are still friends. Our daughters were friends on and off throughout the years. We talked on the sidelines of many sporting events and Bron would always make us laugh. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
