'a friend yet to meet'
June 9, 2024
Josephine and Michael,
I did not know your daughter, but her story affected me deeply and I still think of her often after all these years.
You may never see this, but please know Leanne will not be forgotten - by loved ones and strangers alike.
Take care,

Leanne was our babysitter in Shallowford Park and we are deeply saddened by her passing. She was a lovely, energetic young lady and will be remembered in our hearts as such.
Peace be with your family during this difficult time.

Pea, I will always remember the first time you sang in my office and then on stage. I miss that so much, but I know you are at peace now. A part of you is with all of those you touched...I'm pretty sure that's like a gazillion. Your memory, your beauty, your soulful voice are eternal and infinite now. Peace, sister.

My deepest sympathies are extended to the family and those closest to Leanne. Battles with depression are real and this fact is not lost on God who urges us to be patient and speak consolingly to those who are depressed. May you find comfort in your memories and the hope of seeing your loved one again.

Although I only spent 4 hours with this beautiful woman- I am a better person for knowing Leanne's story. I truly believe Leanne's legacy can be a foundation in educating others on depression. This is a battle I fight everyday, & I will continue to find strength in knowing that she is free. I love you Joy & I am grateful you introduced me to your amazing sister.
