Not sure what to say?

Ginny & Family so sorry for your loss.
FYI Ginny you can apply for your widows pension @ age 59 to be effective @ age 60,
Social Security doesn't always inform you can draw this until your own Social Security becomes available (which ever is greater).
I am sharing this information from one widow to another.


Take Care,

Ginny, Keith and Steve; So sorry to read about your dad. You went through so much before. Your old neighbor, Dave Dudkiewicz

Tyler and I are praying for you sweet Ginny and for the rest of your family. (We met Ginny several years ago when she worked at MDA.) Such a wonderful family. Dr. Leahy was a great man, lived an incredible, but short life of which we are so sorry. Ginny, we are thinking about you, the boys, Joe's parents and siblings.

We love you always!!!
Terri Morris and Tyler Catlett

We are praying for you and your family. What a wonderful husband, friend, father and child of God. Love, Ann and Augie

My sympathies go out to the family of Dr. Joe Leahy. He was a wonderfully knowledgeable professor and I will never forget how hard he worked to get back to classes after the incident at UAH. He did show us how to persevere. God bless all of you in this difficult time.

My deepest condolences to the entire Leahy family. I was fortunate enough to have had the privilege of teaching one of the Leahy's sons and was so impressed by what an outstanding individual he was. The Leahys are an amazing family and will be in my prayers.

I am deeply sorry for your loss of Joe. I remember him as a fierce competitor with high standards and determination.

I was so sorry to hear from Lisa about Joe. What a remarkable Life he has lived and boy did he show the world the true meaning of DONT GIVE UP!! All of you are in my thoughts today as you celebrate the life of your son, brother and great Dad. Much love. Buffie Somers
