Leona Long Obituary
Leona and Gordon Armstrong, both from Helena, are the parents of four remarkable children: Howard Owen of Virginia Beach, Va.; Alan Anthony of Boise, Idaho; Andrew Charles of Boise, Idaho; and Margaret Rachel of Boise, Idaho. They were all able to spend lots of quality time with their beloved mother in her final days and weeks, including a trip to Yellowstone Park.
She was blessed with nine grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her father, John Fechter.
She will be missed by all.
A funeral mass will be held in the summer of 2012.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made in Leona's name to the Hospice of Southwest Montana.
