Although I never met Miss Whitney I consider my life better for knowing who she was. I learned how to stay strong even when times are bleak and to enjoy the little things in life a little more. Whitney you will be missed by many but never forgotten! Prayers to Doug, Lisa and the rest of the family & friends.

RIP Whitney, you were such a beautiful soul and I was so honored to have met such a fun loving girl. Im so sorry Doug and Lisa. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time

When Whitney was a little girl at Century school, I was privileged to be her friend. Knowing her taught me so much about what it means to be a good friend, and how to be strong and keep smiling through adversity. Although this was a long time ago, I'm sure that her strength of spirit and contagious joy remained the same through the rest of her too short life. Love and prayers to Doug and Lisa, Whitney will always have a special place in our hearts.

Whitney put up a great fight. Now she is healthy and waiting with the Lord!

God Bless

When Whitney was a little girl at Century School, it was my privilege to be her teacher. Though it has been many years, I have to believe she remained the same loving person for the rest of her too-short live. Lisa, Doug, you have my sincere condolences over the loss of your remarkable child.

Whitney was a bright light in the lives she touched during her 26 years of life. Whitney certainly touched our lives when our girls were in 4-H together, even though Whitney was born with Cerebral Palsey she never let that stop her from reaching for the stars. Whitney even found me in the Courthouse when I started to work for the Meadowlark District, she would stop and chat with me. We are heartbroken for her parents Doug and Lisa in their loss. Molly and Whitney shared the same birthday and Molly thought that was so awesome and we agree. We are lifting Doug, Lisa and Whitney in prayers. May the Lord comfort you in this loss and keep Whitney close in our hearts. Love you Whitney.

our special angel Whitney; I will often recall your sweet smile and happy attitude. Rock on in heaven as you did hear on earth.

She was an angel here on Earth and now she is an angel in Heaven. Thoughts are with the family.

I was truly blessed when i met Whitney in 2010. She had a fantastic smile and could easily put a smile on someone else's face with her wit and charm! Heaven gained an amazing angel. RIP Whitney!

Pat and Ana Johnson

Whitney I just hope you and my dad don't play too many tricks on us. Thank you for all the memories.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

May God be with you

She put up a great fight. Now she is healthy and waiting with the Lord!
