On Dec. 24, 2025, Batten Disease (CLN2) took the life of Breanna Lee Neveri, age 11, but it will never take the spirit & legacy she left behind.   Breanna was born January 15, 2014.  Always a feisty girl, Breanna loved to laugh.  Her giggle was infectious.  Until Batten Disease took away the ability, she loved dancing and singing to all her favorite musicals and movies. Coraline, Frozen, Trolls, and Moana were favorites played over and over ( and over….), even after she was no longer able to sing and dance.  Visits to her happy place, Chuck E. Cheese, were always a joy.

Her disease robbed her of most abilities, but never her sense of humor. Even when her sight was lost – music, her family's antics , and even naughty words were always cause for giggles. Breanna will be forever remembered for her feisty strength, and ability to smile through adversity.

She leaves her legacy behind to her parents, Scott & Kayla Neveri; her brother, who was also her best friend, Garrison. She also survived by grandparents, Allen Green & Lisa Neddermeyer, Walter Ruhland, Carla & Glen Vobeda and Scott & Pam Neveri; great-grandparents, Dee & Erv Green and Yvonne Neveri; aunts, Kaitlyn Green (Slater Diederich), Kara Green (Jason Blume), Trina Neveri (Kris McDermott) and uncle, Jarred (Araya) Neveri.

She also leaves behind her beloved cousins, Matt, Lilly, Caleb, Evelyn, Braylon, Myles, Kingston, and Henry; the Prudhom and DuBois families; many other beloved extended family members; and her wonderful teachers, who became like family.

Breanna was welcomed into Heaven by her grandmother, Brenda Ruhland and her great-grandparents, Kenneth & Joan Rosmann and Frances Albright.
