Leona was my great Aunt, I am sorry to hear about her passing. My heart goes out to all of you. I am sorry I could not attend as I myself am not feeling well. My daughter Rosemary is typing and sending this to you from me. All our love and prayers to all of you

Love

Lill was a wonderful friend and neighbor. My brothers and I have many fond memories of her and her husband Larry as we grew up nextdoor to them on Keeler. May God bless her and all our dear loved ones who have been called home to be with our Lord.
