Phann Family; I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful angel and my condolences go out to all who knew Lea. I did not personally know her but have closely followed this story and this is a horrible unfair tragedy that no one should have to go through. I am deeply saddened for all of you and I pray for strength and comfort through this very difficult time and I pray for healing for all of you. Such a young & beautiful girl that was taken too soon because of ignorance. Sending my deepest sympathy, warm wishes and prayers. Rest in peace Beautiful Angel Lea.
