Brooklynn Faith Gray was born August 28, 2015 into the loving family of Vanessa Farmer, Paul Gray and Best Big Brother Ever Brayden Gray. Despite her short time on earth and her long courageous battle with Riboflavin Transporter Deficiency Type 2 she was determined to give it the greatest fight it’s seen in history. She was destined to be a QUEEN despite her difficulties battling RTD.
There are some who shine so brightly that ever after they are gone the light remains shining through the darkness and lighting the way of those left behind. Although Brooklynn’s Journey was far from long enough what a beautiful journey it was for us. Her extraordinary life continues to fill the lives of all those who knew her with love and light. She will always be remembered for the Beauty and Vibrance she emanated into the world. Her strong willed, determined spirit touched all those around her, one the hearts of so many and taught a community how to love in spite of differences. Brooklynn proved what one determined little soul can overcome and the difference one tiny human can make in such a big world. Her bond and love for her Big Brother Brayden is one we all have longed for. She will always be Mommy, Daddy and Brayden’s beautiful baby girl and our whole wide world.
