What a beautiful child, inside and out. I re-read your tribute to her the other day in Somerset, and was once again touched by her love for life, and her spirit of courage and determination. She continues to be an inspiration to so many people, and I know that along with the sorrow, must come a great deal of pride, and joy in the memory of such an amazing young woman.
Sending {{{hugs}}}....

I cried, when I saw this picture of your beautiful daughter. I know how you must feel, as we too, lost a son, 8 years ago,when he was 34,and we also think of him every day. All I can say, is your hurt will get "softer" with time, but it will never go away. Thank you for sharing Brianna's birthday with us.She truly is a lovely young lady.
