In loving memory of Brooke Bevilacqua, a beautiful, vibrant young woman whose life touched the hearts of everyone she met. At just 27, her passing was sudden and heart-wrenching, leaving a void in the lives of all who knew and loved her. Brooke's smile could light up any room, and her joyful spirit brought so much happiness to those around her.

The cherished only child of Wendy and Brian Bevilacqua, Brooke grew up in Yorba Linda, surrounded by love and laughter. From the moment she was born, with her curly hair that everyone adored, she held a special place in the hearts of those close to her. She was like a second daughter to many, and her playful sense of humor and infectious laughter will be deeply missed.

Brooke had a free-spirited nature and a boundless creativity that she was just beginning to share with the world. Though her time with us was far too brief, the memories of her vibrant energy and kind heart will remain forever in our hearts. She has been called home by the Lord, and while we mourn her loss, we take comfort in knowing she is at peace.

**Remember**

"Remember me when I am going away,

Gone far away into the silent land;

When you can no more hold me by the hand.

Now I half turn to go yet turning stay.

Remember me when no more, day by day,

You tell me of our future that you

planned:

Only remember me; you understand

It will be late to counsel then and pray

Yet if you should forget me for awhile

And Afterwards remember, do not

grieve;

For if the darkness and corruption

leave

A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,

Better by far you should forget and smile

Than that you should remember me sad."

...Christina G. Rossetti
