Who is Breanna?
Breanna Leigh Chadwick was more than just a name, more than just a person. She was a force of nature, a radiant soul who left an indelible mark on everyone she encountered. Born on a crisp winter day, January 26, 2002, Breanna was the precious gift that Heath and Kristy Chadwick had been waiting for. From the moment she entered the world, it was evident that she was destined for greatness.
​
With her infectious smile and a laugh that could light up the darkest room, Breanna had a way of captivating hearts. Her sweetness was evident in every interaction, but it was her sassiness that made her truly unforgettable. Known for her quick wit and sarcastic smirk, Breanna had a unique ability to deliver honest feedback with a touch of humor. She could cut through the noise and get to the heart of any matter, a skill that few possess.
​
Sports played a significant role in Breanna's life. She excelled in softball, basketball, and lacrosse, radiating dedication and mercy towards her teammates and competitors alike. Breanna's competitive spirit was matched only by her unwavering support for those around her. She cheered on friends, family members, and teammates with a fervor that ignited passion in others. Breanna was the embodiment of sportsmanship, reminding us all of the true essence of the games we play.
​
Beyond athletics, Breanna had a heart overflowing with love and devotion. Her relationships with family and friends were her greatest treasures, but none more so than her bond with her best friend and sister, Kirstin. Together, they navigated life's joys and sorrows, their connection unbreakable. Breanna's faith in God was the bedrock of her life, and she strived to be a shining example of the love and grace she found through her Christian beliefs. She longed for everyone around her to experience the same kind of heavenly peace she had discovered.
​
Breanna's infectious enthusiasm and kindness extended beyond human relationships. Children and animals were naturally drawn to her, feeling an immediate connection to her gentle spirit. She had a way of bringing out the best in even the shyest of children, making them feel seen and valued. Breanna's remarkable charm touched the lives of many, and it is no exaggeration to say that she changed lives for the better wherever she went.
​
It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the loss of this remarkable individual. Breanna's life was cut tragically short, leaving us with cherished memories and an immeasurable void. But in the midst of our grief, let us remember the legacy she left behind. In a selfless act of generosity, Breanna donated several organs upon her death, giving others a chance at life. She understood that what lives on past death is not our physical form, but the impact we had on the world while we were alive.

"Life's too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forgive the ones who don't and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it."
