    Will, Rob,Rick, and families, please accept my sympathy for the passing of Lefty. What a kind person she was, and was so caring for Suzanna. Many fond memories-one time Suzanna twisted her ankle due to wearing high heeled shoes. Lefty confiscated all the heeled shoes in the closet and replaced them with tennis shoes. No more tumbles for Suzanna. Lefty took care of everyone. I know you will miss her. Hold on to the memories.
