Good heavens, what do you say about Lana? She was such a Force-of - Nature. Those sparkling eyes...that infectuous smile...her sense of fun. She and Martha Lou stood up with me at my last wedding and she made it a rare event..."The Bearcat Wedding" as she called it. I really can't think of her that a smile doesn't come to my face. Miss you!

I was so shocked when I saw Lana had passed. Yes, she was a force to be reckoned with. I remember ice skating at Irving Park Lagoon all the time with her. We weren't best friends but we were friends. Gone way too soon.
