My prayers are with the Grenier family in this their time of need. I had the priviledge to cheer with Brittany on the CCL team and she was so fun to be around. I can't believe she was called home so early, but at least she is in a better place with no more pain. Always remember the good instead of her death and cherish what you once had. God Bless You All.

Dear Barbara, Jon, and Meghan,

We will always remember Brittany's beautiful smile. When we think of Brittany, we remember her playing with all the children of Cradle Hill, and we remember sharing Thanksgivings and desserts with you all. God blessed all who knew Brittany by allowing us to share our lives with her. With love and friendship, Pam and Bob.

I pray for peace to reveal itself to all touched by the loss of Brittany Grenier... Our son Kevin died in August.... he was 25 . .... You will be in my prayers the rest of my life...I pray that God will reveal himself in a way that may give you a measure of peace.... She must have been a wonderful young lady and our Kevin has probably taken her under his strong wing .

Dear Barbara, Jon and Megan,

I am without words to express my sadness about your loss. I only hope and will continue to pray that your memories and the support of your family, friends and our community will give you comfort and strength. Some of my fondest memories are my days at Sundays when Brittany would ask to sit at one of my tables and color me pictures. What a beautiful family created by wonderful parents. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
