Alan, I am so sorry for your loss. Leah was the most efficient person I had ever worked with. It is a remembered, wonderful part of my working life.
We could not come to the funeral home. That morning, Miller's Merry Manor called us to tell us they were sending Jan's Mother to the hospital. She finished the day in the Hospice facility. She is 95. You were both in our thoughts and prayers, Thursday. I trust that she found rest and you will have a good number of years to remember her and enjoy life. Burdell and Jan Sell
