It is so hard for me to understand why my sweet Sis in my heart has left us. Only God can answer that. So loved by all of the Hall family. She was the Hall Family Daughter, Sister, Aunt, BEST FRIEND. To know that we will never be Blessed with her voice or messages anymore has saddened us all. ESPECIALLY me. To Leah's blood family, She loved you all so much. When she lived here she talked of her Love for all of you. Especially Ashley and Tabby. How she loved her cat. She could not get enough of Ashley. A huge heart filled with Love for her NY and NC family. I will always remember her smile, her laughter, her jokes and her happiness. I am pretty sure that my Dad and Her are sitting there fishing and sharing some laughs. We will always Love and Miss her until God calls us home. I am sorry for you Loss. With DEEPEST of Sympathy. Leah, RIP until we see you again. I love you,
