I pray that memories of this bundle of joy bring you comfort. May the love you shared give you strength. The kindness Brennan showed day in and day out, was a testament to the peace he possessed inside and the values his family taught him. Our school year had many interruptions, but through it all, Brennan nestled himself in the heart of eachnof us. Brennan, I guess this in our final "Whoooooooo." (The way we said goodbye). Ford family you are in our hearts and our prayers.
