What a blessing to have once worked for Jim. Truly a man to be honored.

Lois, Mr. Leftwich seems to have been a wonderful father, and an amazing person. I know each of you will miss him, but certainly have a lot to smile about and for which to be thankful. All of you were blessed.

I am honored to have served your family.

We have been close friends of Jim and Patsy since the 1960s; skiing in Taos and Vail, sailing on his boat, jogging, bicycling, dining and just enjoying each other's company. In all those years we have never once seen Jim raise his voice in anger or put another person down. He was a true gentleman, a good friend and a loving husband and father. We will miss him terribly.

I remember Mr Leftwich as a Math teacher at what was then called Highland Park Junior High School in the mid 1950s.With deepest sympathy to his family
