We're so sorry to hear about Aunt Lee's passing. My mother talks of how sweet she was, and I remember how nice she was when I went antiquing with her as a small child. Our sincerest sympathies.

This is my second attempt to leave a message.
First my heart goes out to all Lelene's family. She was my closest friend for many years so I know the hole she is leaving.
I remember all the wonderful times we had, especially at Celtic games during their hey day. But also the difficult times when she lost her wonderful husband and I went through a divorce. We were always there for each other. Lelene was never judgmental. On the contrary she was nurturing and gave solid advice. Lelene was an inspiration, a first class lady and will be missed by many.
