Obituary of Brooke Taylor Gardner

Brooke Taylor Gardner, 33, of Montour Falls, passed away on Thursday, September 7, 2023. She was born on August 10, 1990.

Brooke was the loving daughter of Russell and Victoria Gardner, a caring sister to Michael (Michelle) and Ryan (Amelia). She was the proud aunt to nephew Troy and niece Sophie and dear granddaughter of Dorothy Lott. Brooke will be missed by many aunts, uncles, and cousins. She also leaves behind her constant companion and four-legged best friend, Twitch.

Brooke never met a stranger. She always had a big smile and a kind heart. She was often described as a ray of sunshine by her friends and all who knew her. Her imagination and creativity were endless. Brooke was happiest when she was adventuring in a sundress and muck boots. Brooke was employed by Prisebox BBQ and they quickly became her second family.

She left us far too early and we are all heartbroken. We are thankful for the time we had and know that she has joined her Grandfather Clifford Lott and Grandparents William and Geraldine Gardner. Brooke would want you to remember to take time to jump in mud puddles and smile at strangers.

There will be a private burial for Brooke. Please consider making a donation to the Schuyler County Humane Society (PO Box 427 Montour Falls NY 14865) in Brooke's name.

Sleep tight, sweet girl. We love you.
