Janel, it breaks my heart about Chloe. She has accomplished so much in a short time and the sky was the limit. She left you with so many proud moments to think about the time you spent together and she is in heaven now looking down with that big smile. Words can never express or explain why this happened but memories last forever. Love you, uncle B.B.

Janel, I’ve thought of you and your beautiful daughters several times since I left USC.
I remember Chloe being so beautiful and so smart, talented, and sweet. She was starting her first year of college when I left USC. I didn’t know what her educational goals were but I knew she would be very successful at whatever she choose to do. My heart broke for you when I heard this tragic news. The grief is for those that are left behind. She has had the wonderful experience of being welcomed into glory and she got her reward before most of her loved ones. You will be reunited with her before you know it. I will be lifting all her family and loved ones to the Lord for peace, especially you and her little sister who must have adored Chloe. May you have the wisdom to help her understand it is VICTORY for those who love the Lord to be called home. May God continue to minister peace and comfort to you, Janel. Love sent to you and all of Chloe’s loved ones.

I had the privilege of watching Chloe play softball for Arkansas State Redwolves. She was a delight to watch. She always kept her team going with her encouraging words behind the plate. She had a brite smile that could cheer anyone up. I pray for her family and specially for her little sister who I witnessed her love and excitement when she was around. God truly gained a beautiful soul. May God comfort the family today and all the days to come. Rest In Peace sweet girl.

Chloe has been my daughter's best friend for the last three years at NYIT. Our family got to be around Chloe on numerous occasions when we went to visit our daughter. Chloe always came by just to say hello or bring us goodies that she had made. She will be missed dearly by all. We give thanks to God for bringing her into our lives and pray for comfort for her family.
