Last night, Wednesday, around 8 PM, Brianne passed away and is now with God. She no longer is in pain or hurting, and our hearts and minds are still reeling. We thank everyone out there for your prayers and support throughout all of this and continue to ask for prayer. Per Brianne's request, we will not be having a memorial or funeral service and she'll be cremated and her ashes scattered in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina in the Fall and at the first snow. In lieu of flowers, we would ask people to either send gifts to the home address below or support our friend Jon Brown who is running a marathon in honor of Brianne and raising money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and the American Cancer Society have been very supportive, helpful, and provide an invaluable service.
Re. the Party - it was a smashing success and a wonderful time of fellowship, food, and fun. We had around 200 people that came, and we wound up running out of name stickers, had cars parked all up and down our street and neighboring streets, and have lots of leftovers. Thanks to all who helped out and especially to Liz who is an amazing coordinator, mover, shaker, and friend.
Within the next few days, we will post some pictures from the Brianne-abration, some info. about the party, and a few of the letters written to Brianne. Thanks again for everything ya'll out there have been to us and to Bri. We love ya'll.

You all will be in my thoughts and prayers as you go through the days ahead. Brianne fought the good fight and she won the race. May God wrap his loving arms around all of you and carry you through the days ahead.

Just thought you might like to know that our church had Bri and all of you on our prayer list. And last night when Bri went to be with the Lord, a member got a message on their phone and choir practice was halted to pray for you all. There are many upholding you in their prayers as we speak! We hate to hear of your loss, but we also rejoice that Bri no longer has to endure the battle with disease!
Blessings to you all as you continue to serve Bri through carrying out her last wishes...

You all are in my thoughts and prayers constantly!! My heart aches for each and everyone of you! I went to school with Josh and Bri...although I haven't saw either one of you in years when I heard the news I especially thought of you! She is in a better place now free of pain and suffering...I will be thinking and praying for you during this time! I pray that God will bring you peace!
I know Bri has heard the words, "Well done, my good and faithful servant." You all are in our thoughts and prayers, and we hurt with you. We also celebrate the fact that those of us in Christ will have a joyous reunion one day. May God wrap His loving arms around you guys today and in the coming months and years.-jon brown
I will miss Brianne deeply. She showed the world how to live each day to the fullest and how to walk out her faith. Her strength and optimism throughout her life is an inspiration to so many people. I will keep your family in my prayers.
