Le'Ana was a forcely driven, compassionate daughter, grand-daughter, sister, niece and cousin. At such a young age she exuded purpose, confidence, intelligence and curated art.

She cheered for the Winston-Salem Indians, participated in Track and Field with Tri-City relays track club and was a member of the youth empowerment group 'Triad Starz.' Le'Le was a rising senior at Robert B. Glenn High School. Le'le grew up very outspoken with a confidence level that could shake the entire room. She was front and center at family reunions and had one of the loudest cheerleading voices on the field. She styled her own hair, did her own nails, make-up and dressed herself very well.
