I am so sorry to hear of Leilani's passing. I went to Jarratt High School with her back in the 50's and we hung out at school a lot. I lost contact with her over the years and just yesterday May 11th found out she had passed away. Am so sorry to hear this. Just remember that the arms that welcomed your loved one into heaven are the same arms that hold your hearts today. God bless you all.

Russ, Judy and Lisa,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mom and I had such a good time King's Dominion and the field trips with you guys. She was a wonderful person and I know that you have many great memories of her. She was always laughing and had a great sense of humor. We had many good times together with Russ and Mark. I will miss her also.
