Dreama and Sandra ... my heart goes out to both of you as you go through the emotions of dealing with the loss of your wonderful Mother. Aunt Leatha was a very special lady with a heart of gold. My memories of her go way back ....and in every memory she was smiling or cooking or beaming with pride as she talked about her family. God Bless both of you and your families during this difficult time.
