To The Cain & Barber Famiy:

Sorry to hear about the loss of your love one. I remember LaTanya when she first came here from Texas and was staying in Riply Park Plaza. Her mother and three of her sister's had a singing group. They were a large close family. I know she will be missed, but she is in a better place and one day we will have to go this route. We will keep the families up in prayer.
