Verna,
There are not many words to explain how you will be missed. Each time I would visit you at the hospital you would always have the warmest smile and say "there's my LeeLe" when I walk through the door. I will miss you cooking my favorite meals and always giving hard recipes that I could never make now I get it, everything you did and made was all made with love. I miss you vern!!
