One week ago today, Leila and I worked together and she helped me in a mighty way. Every time we worked together she always gave me words of encouragement and instructed me in what to do to reach the next level of my endeavors. I too, mourn Leila's loss. To her family, the word of God declares that God is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we may ask or think according to the power that worketh in us. Which intimate, He is able to lift up your bowed down heads, heal your broken hearts, and to give you the strength to carry on as you go through your time of grief.

Wow, so many wonderful memories of Leila. She was not only a manager to me, but a huge support to me when I lost my father took ill and then passed. Leila mentored me and taught me how to go after what it is that I want in life. I was always impressed by her drive, but also her kind, warm and friendly spirit. She truly cared for my well being and that is hard to find these days. To us, her life was too short but she truly lived a full one. My prayers are with her family who I know she loved deeply. What a great loss.
