I'm sure I don't have to say it because, if you are visiting this page, you probably already know it, but to know Leona is to love her fiercely. To have her as my grandma and now, my prayer warrior, is a privilege I am undeserving of. The memories I have made with her over the past 6 years of having her in our home, and the love that I have always felt from her will never be forgotten. I love reflecting on life she lived and allowing the Lord to show me the ways I am called to be like her. She exemplified the virtues of humility, detachment from the world, presence, and constant praise. I know that my sweet Granny is smiling down on me at the feet of Jesus praying for me and loving me in her most glorified self. She has run this race of life so well, and I hope that the end of my life here on earth would glorify God in the same way hers has. Praise Jesus for a life well lived and eternal life with Him in Heaven!
