COBB – Karlie Marie "Sis" Breeden, the daughter of David and Renada Powers Breeden of Cobb, became one of God's angels on Thursday, March 1, 2007, at the George Mark House for Children in San Leandro. She was laid to rest on Tuesday, March 3, in Sebastopol. She was 4 years old.

Karlie died of an inoperable brain tumor, diagnosed eight months ago.

She was born on Jan. 16, 2003, in Santa Rosa.

She loved makeup, nail polish, chewing gum, pink and purple aquariums, the ocean, camping and Disneyland. She also loved music, walking her dogs, her four-wheeler, horses and Harley-Davidson motorcycles.

She also loved and was loved by her mommy and daddy, and younger brother, Brody, who in her short lifespan knew her as a teacher, sister, daughter and friend. Most of all, her family and others as well knew her as a "miracle."

In addition to her parents and brother, Karlie is survived by her grandma Helen Cervi; grandpas Keith Russell and Ron Powers; and numerous cousins, aunts and uncles.

A private celebration of her life will be held at a later date.
