To the Family of Ladra,
You have my deepest sympathy in the loss of your love one. Ladra and I went to USL in Lafayette. She was always smiling and Ladra had a kindred spirit. My heart is sadden by this but I know that: earth has no sorrows; the heaven cannot heal. Family be strong in the Lord. I'm praying for you.
