Description (Dublin Core)
Ms. Leona "Chine" Grandison, owner of The Candlelight Lounge, passed away due to COVID-19 on April 9, 2020. Friends and family erected an altar in her honor outside of The Candlelight Lounge to allow people to pay their respects while maintaining safe social distancing practices. This letter, accompanying the altar reads: "Thank you for coming to pay respects during this time of COVID-19 to Leona "Ms. Chine" Gradison. Know that you are not alone in your grieving. As we weep at the loss of Ms. Chine together though apart during this time, know that she dwells in your heart now where no pain can reach her. We will join together in some months for a secondline and proper sending home. We cannot see her with our outward eyes but we know she is smiling back upon us from within everything. Please add to this altar honoring her as you feel called. Kindly do not remove any items from the altar. Thank you, Your community member who cares for you, loves you, and prays for you every day."
