Brittany Michelle Bergman, 32, of Clever passed away Saturday July 22, 2023. She was born to Scott McDowell and Shari (Porter) Yarbrough on January 19, 1991, in Springfield, MO. She was raised in Rogersville, Missouri. Brittany united in marriage to her husband Andrew Bergman on May 9, 2015. On September 22, 2020, they welcomed their son, Sawyer Andrew Clanton Bergman.
Brittany loved being a mother to her son Sawyer and loved being Andrew’s wife. She was passionate about her career and played an integral role on the team at Austin Orthodontics in Nixa, MO as a dental assistant. Brittany had a love for classic country music, especially Hank, Willie and Waylon. She really enjoyed her weekends and loved going to concerts and fishing with Andrew. Going to craft shows and DIY projects were high on her list of favorite things to do. Brittany loved to go shopping and loved the color teal.
Brittany’s smile lit up every room she entered, and her kind heart touched the lives of so many. She had an unbreakable spirit. Her strength to fight 5 ½ years with a terminal diagnosis to be the best mother, wife, daughter, and sister was beyond compare. She was loved so deeply by anyone who knew her and her mark on the world will never be forgotten. Brittany is free of pain and is now resting in the arms of Jesus.
