Kyleigh Brunette's father, Jordan Wakefield, died by suicide at age 32 in 2019. Kyleigh held a lemonade stand in July 2022 to raise money for suicide prevention.
Kyleigh Brunette was 6 when her dad, Jordan Wakefield passed away in 2019. A few months ago, Kyleigh’s mother, Brittany Brunette-Thimmesch, sat her daughter down and explained how he died.
. “She was way too young to comprehend and understand what happened. I didn’t want her to get feelings of like, ‘Why wasn’t I enough?’”“Kyleigh came home from school upset because some of the kids were questioning her about how her dad died,” Brunette-Thimmesch said. “So we crawled into my bed and had a very hard conversation.”what to say for when the time came
Kyleigh, just like Brunette-Thimmesch who co-parented with Wakefield, was stunned to learn that he was struggling with depression.“I miss everything about him,” Kyleigh said. “I miss him telling silly jokes. I miss him bringing me to school in the mornings and tucking me in at night.” Earlier this month, Kyleigh announced that she wanted to have a lemonade stand to raise money for charity. Brunette-Thimmesch suggested the Humane Society. But Kyleigh had other ideas.
