Breanna Grooms

Breanna Grooms passed away Jan. 7, 2024. 

She was born May 19, 1999 in the rolling hills of Ohio and graced the world with her presence, bringing unmeasurable joy and love to those around her. It is with heavy hearts that her loved ones announce her untimely passing.

She was a beloved daughter, sister and friend who left this world far too soon, leaving behind a legacy of cherished memories. 

Throughout her life, Breanna bravely battled liver and kidney disease. She faced each obstacle with courage and an unwavering spirit. Her journey taught her loved ones the importance of resilience, perseverance and cherishing every precious moment.

Breanna's journey through life was filled with a vibrant spirit that touched the souls of all who knew her. As a young woman, she delighted in simple pleasures, finding solace in the tranquility of fishing, the warmth of family gatherings and the magic of music. Her infectious laughter could brighten any room, and her love for the Disney Channel brought whimsy and dreams to life.

She found joy in attending the High-Co Workshop, where she connected with others, learned new skills and embraced a sense of belonging. Her presence brightened the lives of those around her, and she will be deeply missed by her fellow workshop attendees and staff members.

Those blessed to have known Breanna intimately understood the depth of her bonds with her parents, Amy and William Grooms. As a daddy’s girl and mommy’s sidekick, she reveled in the nurturing embrace of their love. Together, they created a sanctuary of affection and support that allowed her to flourish despite her disabilities. In the arms of her beloved baby doll, MeMe, she found solace and companionship, creating a bond that will forever be treasured.

Breanna will forever be remembered as a radiant spirit, a source of love and inspiration to all who had the privilege of knowing her. May her vibrant energy continue to guide her loved ones, reminding them to embrace life with joy, perseverance and an unwavering love for those around them.

Besides her parents, she is survived by her brothers, Carson and Kaleb Grooms; maternal grandmother, Helen Bohl of Hillsboro; best friend, Ellie Mae Wolf of Lynchburg; and a host of friends.

She was preceded in death by her paternal grandparents, William and Ruth Grooms; maternal grandfather, William Bohl; and cousin, Jeffrey Trisdale.

As her loved ones gather to bid farewell to Breanna, the honor her beautiful soul and the joy she brought into their lives. Visitation will be held Friday, Jan. 12, 2024 from noon to 2 p.m. at Thompson Funeral Home in Hillsboro, with services to follow at 2 p.m. where friends and family will come together to share stories, laughter and tears. In these moments, they will commemorate the profound impact Breanna made during her time with them, and her memory will forever remain etched in their hearts.
