She graduated Brainerd High School and went on to touch countless hearts with her vibrant spirit and unforgettable personality.
Monica had a beautiful way of lighting up every room she entered. Her laughter was contagious, her energy magnetic and her presence impossible to ignore. She loved deeply and cared fiercely, especially for her daughter, who was truly the center of her world. She was always willing to lend a hand and would simply show up when someone needed her. And while monica could have her moments, that little mean streak that came out every now and then, you also always knew that she loved you as well.
Monica was the kind of person who brought realness wherever she went; she was unapologetically herself!
Though she left us far too soon, Monica's love, laughter and strength will continue to live on through every memory, every story and most of all through her daughter. Her presence will forever be missed, but the impact of her love will never fade.
