Funeral...

Well tomorrow is the funeral for my grandmother Leatha Long. Above is one of the segments from the memorial DVD I made for the service. My brother is going to give the eulogy and is planning on using the different parts of the video throughout his speech. I have been pretty focused on the project which has given me an opportunity to not really think about what is going on. I am sure tomorrow's service will be beautiful.

Leatha A. Ellison Long 1916 - 2008 Visitation will be Sunday from 4-8 p.m., and services will be held on Monday, September 8, 10:00 a.m., at Greenlawn Mortuary Chapel, 3700 River Blvd. for our beloved mother, Leatha Ellison Long, born January 6, 1916, and passed away at home on September 1, 2008.
