no one could tell a story like Leta -- she kept us laughing at American Legion Post 105 with her good natured personality - and her loving husband Meryl -- he must miss her terribly - they were always such a happy couple

My beloved Aunt Leta is now with Jesus and those who have gone before whom she loved. Whenever I was with her I knew it would be a good day. May our Wonderful God bring His Peace to you, Meryl, and your family. We will all see her again in Heaven.

God is great and has claimed another Victory and brought you home, dear Mrs. Schindel! The trumphets will never be able to drown out the wonderful sound of your joyous laughter I sooo loved to hear as a young girl, visiting on many occasions with my momma Faye. You will keep the Heavens laughing and smiling brighter now, and even though our hearts go out to your dear family left behind, I believe God has a very special Angel now watching over 'your' family beside Him. Rest sweet Lady and thank you for your joy and laughter that touched our souls.
