I attended Bevins Elementary School and Belfry High School with Sandi, Mark, and Leslie; all of them are very special people. I admired Leona for being a dedicated mother and such a hard worker. She obviously instilled those same values in her children. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. God bless...
