So Sorry for this lost , she was a wonderful person and a delight to talk to. I never officially got to meet her , but i feel like I knew her my whole life. I will miss the many conversations on the phone with lesa and mom during the beach trips. You will be missed tremendously.

I have favorite aunts and uncles. I was always excited to get to see them at parties or family functions because they lived a good distance away. One of those aunts passed away on May 1st. 2016, Veraine S. Fann. Although, I recently was informed by my mom, she was actually her cousin. All my life, she was my aunt Veraine and will stay that way in my heart. RIP Aunt Veraine, love you! My love goes out to Lesa Downs, Alexia Manwell-Pierce (and David) and all Aunt Veraine's family and friends,.

Such a great woman, she was at her best when she was helping someone. I will never forget you! Love and Prayers to Lesa, and Alexia
