URBAN -- LEONA MAE URBAN MAY 3, 1975 - JANUARY 10, 1996 Ten years have passed. Ten unbelievably long years, yet it seems like yesterday. To anyone reading this, I thank you. I thank my brothers, sisters, and their families, for all their support during Leona's illness, death, and beyond. I thank all my friends and Leona's friends for sharing all the wonderful and funny stories and memories they have of Leona. I thank all the strangers, who never knew Leona, but will listen as I talk about her. Karen and Sharon, I thank you for always including Leona in Xavier's and Jade's and Jordan's lives. Xavier for all the time you see and talk to Leona and telling me about it, thanks little buddy. To my mom, Mary, who joined Leona 3 1/2 years ago, and to my dad, Felix, just three months ago, you are all so lucky to be together. To Robert, my husband, whom also never met Leona, thanks for comforting me on a daily basis. To all parents, who have lost a child, do whatever it takes, pray, cry, scream, wonder, but never forget them. To all parents, tell your children how much you love them today and every day. To you, Leona, we still have MICKEY (mouse) all around us, because you loved him so. LEONA, my precious baby, I LOVE YOU! MOM
