I miss you everyday, my dear aunt LaTia. You were an amazing, funny, beautiful, and caring woman. The entire family misses you with every part of our hearts and you are being thought of everyday. We all loved you and still do love you.

LaTia, incredibly resourceful and wonderfully delightful, I miss you as you taught me so much. Thank you for your patience, understanding, and hard work in helping our group at work stay on top of tasks. We miss you and are very honored to enjoy hearing you laugh, sharing jokes, and just hanging around over zoom. Prayers for your family and grateful for the times together.

LaTia, it's been two years since the surprising turn of events that caused us to hold our cherished memories of you closer. I miss the many interactions we would have just talking about movies, family, weekend plans, jokes and simply goofing around "at the water cooler". I found, however, that I was not alone in considering you one of the best people I have known, and many of us were blessed to get to know your family and many friends better as we came together to mourn. You will truly be forever missed, my friend.

LaTia, before this year we spent 5 years sitting with only a wall between us. On those evenings when we were the only ones there we'd end up answering questions for each other. I recall how when concentrating, you spoke loud enough to be heard and my workday was filled with your voice in the background. When we ever go back to the building, it will be all that much quieter without you there.

LaTia, I have no words to say my sadness. Thank you so much so far. I pray for your soul and your family from Japan.

Dear LaTia, I cannot believe you're no longer with us. You've been called home, but we weren't ready to say goodbye. It won't be the same without you at team meetings and team celebrations. It was so great when you'd open up and share something about yourself. I loved the way you told stories and you always made me laugh. Your smile and laughter were infectious. When you visited our aisle, I knew I could count on a fun conversation and a laugh; usually you and Cecelia would be getting the rest of us informed about the latest reality tv gossip and we'd all be happy and smiling and have a good laugh. You were such a hard worker and did your job so well. I feel blessed to have worked with you for so many years. I hope you know just how much we all appreciated you. You've left a hole in our team and a hole in our hearts. We'll hold your beautiful memory there to comfort us and to celebrate you. I love you LaTia and I'll miss you. You are in God's arms now.

I am very very sad and shocked to hear LaTia's passing. LaTia was part of team 2 and we worked with her, commiserated with her, and laughed with her all the time! I missed her walking over to our aisle to check in with us, chatted with us, and shared her love for movies with us. I consulted her before I went to get my pedicure because I loved her choice of colors. She was so vibrant that she brought joy and light to the office. My work is tightly connected with her so it is so hard for me to see her name everywhere I turned while working. She left us too soon and I regretted that I didn't express my gratitude to her help to me enough.

I will always remember LaTia.

LaTia, our hard working colleague who would embrace challenges and take up extra tasks to help out the team in whatever capacities needed, will be deeply missed. We will miss your brilliance, your years of knowledge, your experience in handling grants, and your fun and bubbly personality! Thank you, LaTia, for being my mentor and my colleague. I will continue to cherish your warm smile and laughter. In remembrance of you and all you've contributed to the Rotary and to our team, I am grateful for the times we worked together.

LaTia and I would often chat on the el platform and during the train ride from the Evanston Davis Purple Line stop. She was a lovely person, always happy and full of life. I'll miss her smiling face and positive energy. Sending my prayers to her family and friends in this time of sorrow and grief.

I will always remember LaTia's as a friend with an amazing sense of humor, and the ability to provide detailed reviews of movies that included everything except for the correct names of the actors... She knew how to make us laugh ever day, and would brighten up the workplace with her personality and stylish wears. Having the opportunity to work with LaTia is something that I will forever be thankful for as she was not only a co-worker, but also a friend. I know we will eventually meet again, and I will be looking forward to hearing about all of the movies and shows I should be watching. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends during this difficult time. May we all do our best to celebrate LaTia even if we are far apart.

To my beautiful and beloved friend LaTia,
Nothing will be able to fill the hole in my heart that was created when I heard you were gone. How can I ever feel ready to say goodbye to eight years of seemingly everlasting friendship? Eight years of hearing your voice every day. Eight years of laughter. Eight years of sharing stories. Eight years of sharing life's happy and tragic milestones. Watching our favorite shows and always making time to talk about them. Accidentally wearing matching dresses and buying the same pair of shoes. Providing daily messages and prayers for each other as we went through difficult and challenging times.
These things I will treasure always. Though you are no longer here, you will not be forgotten, my dearest friend. I will keep your memory alive in my heart forever.
