Lawana is my niece by marriage. As a young girl she was a talented musician. She had a gift for piano and actually surpassed the skills of her teacher. In the period of one year of instruction her gift came forward. She played with heart & had the potential to succeed professionally.
Rest in peace Lawana…..
