I worked with Laveda at Aegis Communications for a few years. She was a wonderful lady, full of laughs and good thoughts. I know that she will be sorely missed by the family that she constantly bragged about. She was a true inspiration to all who knew her. I just hope that since she is in Heaven now she will let God keep running it. Love and miss you Laveda
