Not sure what to say?

She was so pretty she will be missed.

I knew Leigh at Vanderbilt. I remember meeting her the summer before my freshman year. So very sorry for your loss. I hadn´t seen her in many years but will always remember the kindness she showed to others.

Leigh and I were on the staff of the newspaper together at Lee High School. Years later while my family and I were living in The Netherlands we saw each other at a sports tournament at the American School of The Hague. She looked exactly the same as she did in high school so it was easy to recognize her. She was so lovely - gracious, kind, smart, creative. I was so sorry to hear of her passing.

Dear Edwards Family,
Our prayers are with you We met Leigh and you all during our time in London at ASL. Your mom and wife radiated kindness. God bless you all.

Leigh was such a good childhood friend. I met her in 5th grade and spent so much time with her until graduating from high school. We were in choir together at River Oaks Baptist Church and I grew to love her and her brother and sister. She was one of the kindest and gentle people I have ever known. If she didn't represent the love of Christ - I'm not sure anyone could. This world was not her home and she is longing for us to join her, even now. Blessings to her family - our prayers for you...

I just found this Guest Book, and although my entry isn't until today, I have thought of little else but precious Leigh since learning of her passing. Heaven sure gained a true angel and our world lost one of its brightest lights, always beaming from the inside out. My heartfelt condolences to Leigh's family. Much love, Clare Broun Johnson
