    It is just so sad when things like this happen to great people.. She was a great actor and never seemed to be to caught up in the fame. She's in a better place now and I'm sure we'll see her in another lifetime.

    For those of you out there making comments that are down right wrong just step back for one second.... What if it were your sister, your Aunt, Your Mom, Your wife, your daughter, just think of the pain and sadness you would encounter and feel. As Im sure all of you have felt it one time or anoter and if not well I dont feel sorry for you at all!! But When U do, remember back to this day when U were so nasty to a person that never did anything to you! I hope the pain is multiplied by 50 so U feel the pain U caused today! The nasty comments need to stop! All of you who said such detrimental things about Brittany should be ashamed of yourself! Wow Im in shock at what I just read. Go home and hold the mom,cild,daughter,sister or anyone for that matter that U love and hope U will be forgiven for what hurtful words U displayed in this time of loss!!! RIP sweet one we will see U on the other side... You touched so many lives and made so many laugh. We will ALL miss you. xoxoxoxoxoxo
