Adelaide Manth (right above & left below), grandma to Leah Joy was laid to rest today, January 26, 2012 at the age of 73.
At her service, her eight grandchildren lead the gathering of family and friends in a tribute by singing the song they often sang to their dear grandma, "You Are My Sunshine". The NF2 community and Run4 Leah/Cure NF will sorely miss Adelaide's volunteer efforts and dedication to raising awareness for Neurofibromatosis. Raffles, registration tables, golf tournaments, spaghetti dinners and Buffalo Marathon packet pickup and water stations are just a few of the places you could find Ade's smiling face and "ready to help" attitude.
It certainly won't be the same with out her, but she showed us all how one person CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
She is an amazing person & will be sadly missed!
