In Loving Memory
Breanna Kayla Kral

Breanna Kayla Kral, affectionately known as Bre, Breezy, or “Bre-yoncé” to those close to her, was born on June 22, 2002, in Euclid, Ohio. She passed away at the age of 23 on Tuesday, September 2, 2025.

Bre graduated from Lincoln-West School of Global Studies on June 16, 2021. She was most recently working at the United Cerebral Palsy Foundation Day Services.

Bre had a vibrant personality and a one-of-a-kind sense of humor. She loved checking out cute boys—whether on TikTok, Facebook, or in person—sometimes just to drive her cousin Brian crazy. She kept up with the latest TikTok dances and always laughed hardest when Uncle Jason tried them with her. She looked forward to Challenger Baseball each year with her cousin Shawn, if only to pick out the biggest trophy at the end of the season. Family game nights were some of her favorites—especially when she could win (even if it meant a little cheating).

Bre enjoyed all kinds of music, watching funny YouTube videos, going for walks with the dogs, and showing off her sense of fashion and love of shoes. You had to keep an eye out, though—if given the chance, she might just order a cart full of goodies on Amazon using Gramie’s credit card.

She treasured trips and traditions, including the annual Challenger Baseball tournaments, visits with her friends at both the Lakeshore and Collinwood Congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Asian Lantern Festival at the Cleveland Zoo, and family outings to Patterson Fruit Farm. Bre often dreamed of attending college one day to become an author. Most of all, she loved spending time with her family—babysitting her cousins, hanging out with her sister Julia, and creating cherished memories.

Bre was known for her remarkable strength and resilience, demonstrated time and again through numerous surgeries. Through it all, she never lost her radiant, award-winning smile. Despite her own challenges, she loved to give back—leading Team Kral for the annual Walk for Wishes. Her intuition was extraordinary, and she always found her own way to communicate with precision and heart. Bre’s sense of humor, beautiful singing voice (worthy of any Disney princess), and playful sass made her unforgettable.

Her life was filled with special milestones: having her wish granted in 2009 with a magical trip to Disney and a stay at Give Kids the World Village; mastering her eye-gaze computer and head-controlled wheelchair; attending Prom and celebrating with the graduation party of her dreams; winning the Golden Glove award in Challenger Baseball; and being voted “Best Smile” by her graduating class. That smile grew even bigger when she proudly bought her first 40 oz. on her 21st birthday.

Bre is survived by her loving grandparents, Tim and Darlene Kral, who cared for her throughout her life; her sister Julia and brother Caleb; her aunts and uncles Stacey, Lenny (Angie), Jason (Danielle), and Corey; her cousins Shane, Mason, Shawn, Sophia, Spencer, Aliviah, and Ryleigh; her two beloved dogs, Beck and Kala; and Amber. She will also be deeply missed by Ms. Felicia and Ms. Brittany—her beloved aides—as well as her caretakers and therapists at UCP and her many doctors at Metro.

In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that contributions be made to support the Kral family.
