Leta Hall

It is with heavy hearts that we announce that Leta Hall, a beloved member of our community, has passed away. Leta was a mainstay performer on stages throughout the area, a devoted volunteer at Silver Spring Stage, a moving force behind the WATCH Awards, and a radiant presence in the lives of all those who knew her. She will be truly and deeply missed.

To remember Leta, in lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the American Cancer Society (http://www.cancer.org/) or Silver Spring Stage (http://www.ssstage.org/donate/).
