It is with such a heavy heart that I mourn the loss of my dear Aunt Leona. I remember the good times my sister and I had with her coming up as a child. She always had a sweet, infectious spirit. Her smile could light up a room. While the days ahead might seem like too much to bear, I pray that God grants our family peace and comfort that surpasses all understanding during this time. May He provide us with strength, and we surround each other with the same love that Aunt Leona showed us.
