Not sure what to say?

Leah was in my set 427 at the London Hospital, I only met her briefly, but I remember her as being a beautiful young lady. My thoughts are with her family, god bless. Helen Thomas (Nee Maude) x

An amazing, strong, brave lady. Mrs. Leah will truly be missed. I'm so glad I got to see her that day. Praying for yall!

During our nurse training I will always remember Leah as the girl with the smiling face. We weren't close but I have fond memories of her. May her family live on with her smile in their hearts.

So sad to hear this news.Leah was in my set at The London. I remember her as a calm,considerate and strikingly beautiful girl. Joy Milligan née Davis

I trained at LH with Leah in set 427, she was always so full of life and fun . May Leah now be at peace, and her family find the strength to carry on their lives to the full.
Best wishes,
Helen Outen ( nee Evans)

May she rest in peace Jan Roberts nee Mills (set 427 The London Hosp )

Leah, the first message you ever sent me was this...“Man is forced to be alone by the very nature of society. But if you meet a person who is not envious, who loves and believes in other than himself, then to this rare person offer a lifetime of friendship”... and you drew me a flower and, of course, a mouse! Thank you for 34 years of friendship and our wonderful children. With love and friendship, goodbye Mouse, I miss you xxxx

Set 427 The Royal London Hospital August 1972

It was with great sadness that I learnt that Leah was so dreadfully ill with just a few days left to live. Moments earlier I had been so euphoric that I had found her after almost 40 years! I trained with Leah as a State Registed Nurse (now RGN) at The Royal London Hospital from 1972 -1975. I with my friend Mim (Miriam), we are organising our 40th Reunion next year. Although Leah was not one of my closest friends she was always quite delightful and the whole set (427) loved her beautiful...

We shared our lives and our families for two years in our youth, such fun, happy and adventurous years in Penarth and Shreveport. Your love, bravery and strength of character will live with me forever.
