Thinking of all of you today as I learned the news of Lena's passing. There are so many great memories of your Mama-Lena. She and Tom opening their home to share her wonderful meals and making friends feel like family. The holidays and family celebrations were always special with Lena's gift of having more than enough food and love to go around. We'll all miss her. Let God and your memories bring you comfort.
