On Saturday, August 17th, 2019, Brianna Marion Nieduzak of Grosse Pointe Woods, passed away in her home at the age of 13.

Brianna was born at St. John’s Hospital in Detroit, MI on February 28th, 2006 to Edward & Cynthia (née Papiez) Nieduzak. She was raised in Chesterfield, MI until moving to Grosse Pointe Woods at the age of 3.

Brianna had a passion for animals - most notably the noble wolf - and nature. She loved to attend the Detroit Zoo where she had season passes. Her dogs, Max and Tiny, were two of her most cherished companions. She enjoyed her camping trips with her parents, where she found comfort in the beautiful outdoors. Brianna was a long time girl scout, which only expanded her already deep love for nature. Like her father, she was raised on music, practicing the piano and the viola. Brianna was a gifted artist, she loved to write and draw as a means to express herself. She also spent her free time getting lost in video games and YouTube videos, which brought her much happiness.

Brianna is survived by her loving and devoted parents, Ed and Cindy. She is now being held in the arms of her grandfather and grandmother, Edward & Marion Nieduzak, grandfather Mike Papiez, uncle Matt Papiez, and her treasured cat Fredo. She will be forever in the hearts of her loving family, including her adoring aunts, uncles, and cousins.
