What I remember about my friend LaTanya is her beautiful smile. Her willingness to learn new things about the job. To me she had a inner strength of character, a deep love of her family and a total devotion to God. She was always a total pleasure to talk with. I send my deepest condolences and prayers to her family and friends. LaTanya, you may be beyond our embrace, but you have never left our hearts.

Don't cry for me, for now I'm Free.
I'm walking the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard him call.
I turned back and left it all.
I could not stay another moment,
to laugh, to love, to work, to play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I found that peace at the close of the day.
If my passing has left a void,
then fill it with remembrance of joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, oh yes.
These things I too will miss
be not burdened with times of sorrow.
Just remember the smile on my face,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life has been full, I savored much,
loving family, good friends, good times.
Perhaps my life seemed all to brief.
Don't lengthen it now with grief,
lift up your aching heart and share with me;
God wanted me now.
He set me free.

Our deepest sympathy for your lost,
The Randall Family

As God gets another angel, please remember that she suffers no more. I know your hearts are heavy, but with prayer, time and each day of remembrance she will forever be in your hearts. My prayers are with you. Your bowling teammate, Lisa Simmons (Alexandria, Virginia)
