Today was the day I got the news about Mema. I remember those words and I always will remember them. A little before I had a feeling like God was telling me or letting me know it was her time and I thank him for that as she deserved to be happy. I love you Mema to Pluto and back

Miss you friend. Happy heavenly birthday.

Today might be hard for some people as today personally is hard for me. A lot of people say leaAnn was a teacher an amazing friend a great mom and grandma but she was so much more than that she was a beautiful smart caring very stubborn person she was my best friend. I remember when she had a seizure in heb in the cheese section- and after when she was getting helped by the ambulance people she looked up and saw the fear in my eyes and said “I’m ok” I’m ok... that moment was I can’t even explain she was so tough! She survived so much and lived a great life. I wouldent be the person I am today with out her. I just want to take a moment to thank her thank you so much for everything ! I also remember this day last year. I remember hearing those words- “they are letting her go sometime this afternoon “ those words that just killed me. Then a few days before my dad told me she had covid hearing those words right then all I could do was drop my phone and cry. It was the fact that I new what was about to happen. I knew a couple days before that she was in trouble i could feel it. The last time I ever got to talk to her was her birthday Jan 19 2020 it was one of the best days of my life! I would always ask her who’s your favorite grandchild and she would say me as I would say she’s my fav grandma and or best friend. She would also every time I went home from school she would annoy me with questions but deep down I did not care. I loved it! I could go on and on but I’ll stop here. Love you Mema ❤️

A sweet friend who loved teaching children. Especially those who needed extra love n attention. We had great laughs and a few tears during our friendship. You went too soon but now we have an angel watching over us!

LeaAnn was one of the kindest, open minded and honest women that I had the opportunity to share my life with. I spent hours with her when I needed someone to talk to and she listened. Her door was always open to me, my children and the rest of my family. My mother considered her a best friend and LeaAnn was. She truly opened my eyes to many things in life, whether I wanted to see them or not. My heart will always have a place for her and the memories we shared will remain with me forever. She treated me like one of her own and I will never forget that. Miss you so much LeaAnn. Thank you for being such a wonderful friend and part of my life.

There is so much I can remember about this awesome lady. We went to the same church and I grew up with her sons. She was the sweetest l"Mom" and was a big part of the church. She did so much for a lot of us Love you LeaAnn. She gave the best hugs. :)

LeaAnn, AKA Nana, was my mom, Eileen Nelson’s childhood best friend. Us Nelson kids weren’t related by blood but we were her Nana kids, and she’s been in our life since the day we were born. She often visited us in Dallas and did her best to attend all our celebrations. I still can’t believe she’s gone... I will miss my Nana very much, especially her big hugs, soothing voice, and all her love & support. She wasn’t my blood aunt, but I loved her like one. Till the day I get to hug you again, Nana.
