We all remember Aunt Leona fondly, although we had lost touch the last few years. She and mom communicated till mom's alzheimers made it impossible. Our prayers and wishes are with you all from the Portwood family. Sorry we couldn't make the visitation. Decatur, IL United States
To the family of Momma Jones, you have alot of wonderful memories to hold onto from this lady. She has left you a great legacy…I encourage you to remember her smile, her laugh and all the spunky-ness about her. She had so many gifts and talents from decorating a room to cooking a great meal. I loved your mom and I know that the sadness you feel in your hearts hurts, but the Lord will get you through this and he has a peace that passes all understanding call on him and he will be there for you. Your mom would want you to call upon the Lord for peace. I know she is dancing in heaven having a great time and she wouldny want you to be sad for her…..You were blessed with an Awesome Mom – may her legacy live on with you all.
