Lana was a sweet girl and lots of fun! I first met her when she lived in Ozark.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to Pam and Ron and Lance.

I had the privilege of being one of Lana’s teachers many years ago. She brought so much joy to me and so many other people. she used to come and spend the night with me and we would make cupcakes and take to school the next day for her classmates. I love you, Lana and many prayers and hugs to Ron, Pam Lance and the rest of the family, she will always have a place in my heart.
One fond memory I have of Lana is how she loved her rings. She was always so proud to show them off. Keeping you in my prayers now and the days ahead.
May you be comforted.
