“No words. Feeble try… Our world stopped at 5:12 pm on 3/14/26. We are overwhelmed with a gut wrenching grief, so hard it makes us ill. It’s as if the world is spinning and we are stuck somewhere detached. The nausea is constant. Our worst nightmare won’t end,” she began the post.

Monica continued, “It’s hard to move but things must get done to honor our dear Rexy. I’m writing this to thank you… ALL of YOU. The love, prayers, cards, texts, calls, meals, flowers , posts and hugs are felt and matter. The shared stories, music, and videos of Rex’s dynamic interests and talents are uplifting and incredible.”

“It’s deep, it’s messy, it’s organic, it’s beautiful and authentic,” she concluded. “I’m channeling my shattered heart for my dear Brad, Judge, Honor, Elijah , and sweet Savanna… ✨????.”

Brad and Monica competed together on season 27 of Survivor and then Brad later returned for season 34.
