    It was our pleasure to know Ms Letha while serving at County Line back in the early 90′s. She was a dear lady who loved the Lord, and the sincerity of her faith was obvious to all who came into contact with her. Heaven’s no doubt a little brighter today. May the peace that passes understanding be yours as you celebrate her life and grieve your loss.
