The only child of Bobby Brown and Houston died six months after she was found unconscious in a bathtub.
The aspiring singer was placed in a medically-induced coma on January 31 after she was discovered face-down in the water-filled tub at her townhouse in Roswell, Georgia.
She was later transferred to Peachtree Christian Hospice, where her family and loved ones maintained a bedside vigil.
