So sorry to learn of the tragic accident and loss of your Bravon.
Words don't always ease the pain when grieving the death of a loved one , but comfort can be found in Jesus' promise of the resurrection hope, when he will raise up those who are now sleeping in death, restoring them back to life on a restored paradise earth. (John 5:28,29; John 11:11; Revelation 21:4)
There is much Bible based comfort to be found on jw.org

Dear Sam & Heath - there are no words to ease the pain of your loss. Bravon was a beautiful and polite young lady when I met her at my office I was working at. We did a sports physical for her- basketball. So loved basketball. You both were great parents and she was lucky to have you Sam! I love ya💜 Will continue to pray for you and your family. If you need anything let me know💜 Fly high Bravon💜

I'm so sorry for your loss bravon was a beautiful loving person and She passed young. No parent or sibling should have to go through this and I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I knew her from school she was so smart and had plans for her future. I pray that you all find peace and comfort because she is with God now and looking out for all of us 💜💜.

-God Bless

We know there are no words we can say that will ease your pain. For some reason Jesus needed Bravon more than she was needed here on earth. Just know we're praying for you and IF there's anything we can do please let us know. Mr. Ricky & Ms. Ceretha
