I'm so sorry about Brittany. I found a scripture on JW.org that I like to share, Acts 24:15, "there is going to be a resurrection" I wish your family the very best for the future.

I worked with Brittany in the Women's Cancer Center. She was extremely kind and compassionate with our patients, and always willing to help us nurses. It was apparent to me that she loved Carson to the moon and back. God rest her soul. May her family and friends be comforted, and. special prayers go up to God's ear for Carson. Rosanne Berube

Uncle Bob, Aunt Brenda, Braden & Brent, My heart aches for all of you. I am sorry for the tremendous loss of Brittany. I will never forget how Britany was always so welcoming to me, I always felt included around her. She was one of kind. I will always cherish the memories we shared growing up—our love for American Girl dolls, going to crafters showcase together and especially those weekend sleepovers I always looked forward to. I can still picture us walking to visit Emma, and how much joy those simple moments brought. Brittany, you have so many angels in heaven with you now. May you finally be at peace. Your fight is over, and I hope you are free from all the pain you carried here. Rest in peace. You will always be loved and remembered.

I'm so sorry that the Pavlik family lost their heart. Brittany thank you for always being there and I will never forget your kindness in taking Braden and I to and from SRU. You never once complained about the weekly trips and you were exactly the kind of sister anyone would be lucky to have. I'm sorry you lost your fight.
