Family joke that neighbors compare them to the Brady Bunch

A young widow and widower who found love and blended their families together say their neighbors call them the real-life Brady Bunch. Brittany Price Brooker, 29, and Daniel Brooker, 34, tragically lost their spouses Patrick Price, 30, and Lyndsie Brooker, 28, within one month of each other in 2015. Brittany’s husband Patrick, a parole officer, died when his heart stopped beating while at work in September, while Daniel’s wife Lyndsie lost her battle with ovarian cancer in August of the same year. In a day Brittany became a single parent to her boys Teyton, six, Evan, five, and Nathan, four, while Daniel faced life as a single dad to Aubrey, seven, and Ethan, eight.
