I am so sad to read of my cousin Leslie's passing. Although I hadn't seen her since she moved to Idaho, I have fond memories of her from Wrathall get togethers when she and her family lived in Salt Lake. I knew she was a kind and beautiful person, but I did not know about her many artistic talents. I wish I had been able to see some of her creations.
Stephanie and Nathan, I am so sorry for your loss. I will never forget your mother's beautiful voice.
Sincerely,
Susan Wrathall
