I wish I could have seen Lea Ann one last time before she left us. I used to sometimes complain about Festival until I started working for other people, and then I realized just how fair and compassionate Lea was. I've said a few prayers for Lea, although she probably doesn't need them, since she was a good person. Like everyone else, it was a shock to hear of her sudden passing. Take care Lea, you were good and fair to me when you didn't need to be, since I gave you your fair share of headaches to deal with. I'm sorry I didn't make it to your celebration of life event, which was on my 51st birthday. And I send my condolences to Ken and Kenny and the whole Weir family, as well as the whole Festival extended family, which I was a part of. P.S. One of my regrets is after our interactions at work, you would usually smile warmly at me, and I never smiled back. I wish I would have just loosened up and let down my defenses and reciprocated your friendly smile with a smile back.
