Brittany will be lovingly remembered by her mother, Mary and Dr. Bruce Jackson; father, James VanderJagt; siblings, Jade VanderJagt; Jakob and Kate Jackson, Hilary and Jesse Tien, Brock Jackson, Trent and Morgan Jackson, and Rhett Jackson; significant other Erik Chmelar; and many aunts, uncles and cousins.

Love is inexplicable. It's the rarest thing that has unlimited supply, and you can never find it until it finds you. Love is indestructible, yet so very delicate. Thank you for finding me, Brittany. You were rare, unlimited, indestructible, and delicate. -Erik
