Brittany Lynne Atkinson

away on Saturday, December 25, 2021 surrounded by her loving

family. Brittany was born on November 1, 1978 in Fort Collins,

Colorado, a daughter to David B. Stroud and Julene Hale.

If you ever met Brittany it didn’t take long for you to know that

her Savior, her husband, and her children were the center of

her world. A deep love for Christ was evident by her

unwavering faith, love for God’s people, dedication to her

church and her genuinely kind heart. Though her time on this

earth was short she made an incredible impact on countless

lives. Following high school, Brittany attended Arizona State

University eventually transferring to Northern Arizona

University where she would graduate with her Bachelor’s degree

in Business. She then moved to California to be close to her

family and that’s where she met the love her life, Erik Atkinson.

The two married in 1999 and shared twenty-two wonderful

years together. Brittany and Erik made their way to Georgia

where Erik would open his dental practice and together they

would raise their three amazing children. Being a mother to her

children became a full-time passion and Brittany considered it

her greatest accomplishment. She was very involved in all their

activities, whether it was school, swim meets, competition

dance, music lessons, baseball, or soccer. When she had a

moment to herself, Brittany could be found actively looking for

ways to serve everyone around her whether for her community,

church, or loved ones. She enjoyed singing, traveling, and

spending time laughing and playing games with her extended

family and countless friends. Brittany was a wonderful daughter,

wife, mother, sister and friend; she will certainly be missed by

all who knew and loved her.

Along with her mother and father, Brittany’s family includes

her loving husband, Erik Atkinson; three children, Ryder, Reese

and Wyatt; step-mother, Kristin Stroud; three brothers,

Brandon Stroud and his wife Melanie, Jaymeson Stroud and his

wife Shelby, Shane Stroud and his wife Melanie; in-laws, Dell
