The mother-of-six — who also shares kids Logan, Madison, Hunter, Gabriel and Savanah with ex Kody Brown — took to Instagram on Wednesday, April 10, to share a slideshow of photos and videos of past celebrations.
Garrison Brown died by suicide at 25 years old.

"We talked a lot about you today and even went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner (your favorite place 😀)," she continued. "I still feel you nearby sometimes. And I’m grateful we will see each other again when my journey is completed."
Garrison's family celebrated his 26th birthday at his favorite restaurant.
Fans flooded the comments section with condolences and words of love for Garrison and the Brown family.
"Sweet Robert Garrison Brown, I’m sure you can see now just how many hearts you’ve captured and how many lives you’ve touched, human and animal alike," one user penned. "Happy birthday. Rest in paradise. ❤️"
