Well today is a sad and happy day all wrapped up into one. It was three years ago today that Evonne passed away, which undoubtedly brings about some sad memories. But, having Leah helps Lester and I both to remember what a great spirit she was. Looking at Leah it is hard to deny the resemblance as she looks just like her father and he looks just like his mother, so it is easy to see Evonne in her. Leah and I spend time often talking about her grandmother, what she was like, the kind of person she was and the shoes that Leah has to fill having part of her name. Today we are saddened by the loss of Evonne but thrilled that we have a little girl to continue with the name Leah Evonne Norvell, as we expect her to be as great as her grandmother.
That is a really nice post. I forgot that we were at that anniversary already. I will be thinking of you guys tonight. I'm hoping that the beauty of Evonne's life will bring joy to your sadness. She definietly left the best part of her behind to live on...Les & Leah! We love you guys and are thankful tonight for Evonne's life and legacy!
