The Janes Gang healing fund

Cody and Lacy Janes from Florence have been struck with a shattering life changing loss that no parent should face.  They are the most giving , selfless family that would drop anything to help anyone in need of any sort.  They are mourning the passing of their 16 month old baby girl Braylynn who went home to the lord August 21st.  We are at a loss for words on this unexpected blink of an eye tragedy.  This sweet angel brought so much light to the world and was taken from us way too soon.  She loved her mom so much and was always in her arms smiling knowing she was loved.  She absolutely loved wrestling with her daddy, big sister Brylee and brother Boe, who always made her feel like a princess that always won.  She was one of the toughest, sweetest, most beautiful baby girls we got the privilege and honor to know and love!  Our hearts are crushed for this family and if we could make this time a bit less stressful and let them focus on staying sain and healthy.  Cody and Lacy need to take time to be a family and focus on keeping their home grounded, stable and most importantly full of love for their babies who dont fully understand what has truly happened to their lives at this point.  If we could come together, whether you grew up with them as my husband and I did, met them not long ago your just simply reading this by passing.  Whatever it is, the community lost a loving smiley baby girl who's light remains shining so bright on her beloved family.  Let's support them during this life altering tragedy so they are able to focus on what's most important in life as we all know our families are, yet take it for granted until something like this opens our eyes and it's too late.  God bless you all for your love and support.  It doesn't go unnoticed.  Prayers

Braylynn Janes

Braylynn spent her days being loved, cuddled, and spoiled by her Mom. Wrestling and riding with her Daddy on motorcycles. Her big sister Brylee and big brother Boe always treated her like the princess she was. Between wrestling matches, the three inseparable siblings enjoyed dance parties, going for rides, and embarking on memorable adventures with their many, many cousins. Braylynn’s love for all her animals could not be matched. The recipients of her love included her mini horse, ducks, chickens, kitties, and dogs. Bray recently displayed her fearlessness and inner strength during a family trip which included tons of pool time. Braylynn had no fear of water and loved jumping into pools and getting splashed. Bray Bray, you always were and always will be the brightest star in the sky.

The family would really appreciate if you wore baby pink or other pastel colors on Friday to celebrate their precious angel Braylynn
