I was blessed to have known such a beautiful person as Mrs. Leffler. She would greet me daily as I arrived to work and call me her champion. She never realized how much this greeting helped to make me a happier employee. She was so energetic and always ready to assist with any project. It was an honor to work with such a terrific healthcare professional. She will be missed but not forgotten. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Linda Leffler was an amazing woman and a constant source of encouragement during the years I was blessed to serve as her pastor. What a homecoming happened in Heaven when she opened her eyes to eternity. Today, I said a prayer of thanksgiving for the opportunity I had while our faith walks crossed paths for a few years in Arlington, TX.

I'm thinking of the family during this difficult time. Linda was a bright spot during my days at JPS. I commend her for working to bring care to thousands of women through various grants and programs that wouldn't have been possible without her input. Her many years of impeccable service do not go unnoticed.

What an amazing woman! I was the staff assistant in Laboratory Services when I worked for JPS and Ms. Leffler was one of the supervisors I assisted. She had a wonderful sense of humor but was extremely knowledgeable. I learned a great deal from her and have thought of her often after my tenure ended. May God bless the family now and in the coming days. You were fortunate to have a wonderful person in your lives.

I am so saddened to hear of the loss of the best boss I have ever had! Mrs. Leffler was an amazing teacher, mentor, boss and friend. Although it's been many years since she was part of my daily life when I worked for her in the JPS lab, through the years I have thought of her often. I have so many wonderful memories that I will always carry with me. Earth has lost an amazing woman, but the Lord has gained an angel. I love you Linda Leffler.
