My sincere condolences to the Hudson and Powell Family. I have stood where you are standing now and relized that God has the ultimate choice. We are blessed to have been a part of Leenora life for just the time God said it was ok, but know and trust that Leenora was a precious flower that needed to be picked and place into the beautiful bouquet of life. God has his very own centerpiece. Always remember that Leenora trusted in God and you must also. The tears will fall, and your heart feels broken, but God will never give you more than you can bear. No words can express my feelings. Leenora will truly be Missed.
Keeping the family in prayer.
