To the Montgomery family..I am so sorry to read about your loss. I am going to share with you a poem my mother wrote 37 years ago for a very special little girl and I hope it helps.
God Has Called an Angel
God has called another Angel unto him this day, With His loving hand outstretched to lead her along the way.
Little Brooklyn will no more shed a single tear, For she is with dear Jesus now He always will be near.
We do not understand at all why this has to be, But Jesus said when we meet Him then we all shall see.
Little daughter, sister and friend is in loving care, The memory of her will linger on and this too, we’ll share.
So with the twinkle of each star that we see above, Brooklyn will be smiling and sending us her love.
Another Angel sings a song of Glory to our God, And steps along the path way where other Angels trod.

I didn’t find out about Brooklyn’s death until now and I am so sorry for your loss it hurts me just as much as the next person. My Mom made the right decision not to tel me about it because my dad passed away not even a year ago by commiting suicide and I’m sorry that I had to find out this way. Brooklyn used to go to my Mamaw’s Daycare her name is Charolotte Wayne and I babysitted the twins before it got to the point where Lisa and Brad could not pay for them to go there. I found out because I go to Ekron Baptist Church and I saw Bradyn with this couple that does foster care that I have known for years and I hadn’t seen Brooklyn and that’s when my Mom told me. Let me tell you this Bradyn is in good hands with this couple they are the sweetest people you’ll ever meet and he’s having a blast going to Sunday School I just know that he’s in good hands. I’m so sorry for your loss my prayers are with you I know the pain of loosing someone close to you because I’m only 14 and lost my Dad and to have to watch my little siblings go through it is the hardest thing in the world and one of my little sisters’ don’t know that Brooklyn is gone so it is really hard keeping it from her. It also makes it harder on me knowing that Brooklyn passed away 2 days before my birthday and knowing I was the happiest person in the world and not feeling bad for you because I didn’t know hurts me. I’m so sorry for your loss, Your in my prayers, Love, Savanah Georgia-Jean Sipes I’m so sorry if you need someone to talk to just email me or find me on Facebook.
