Leita June Twyeffort

Mark, Marleta, Brandon, Steven, Stan,
It was a privilege to be with you this past week. Midnight conversations with Leita - her tuneful, crisp voice -- going to bat for you, for me. If you will run for me, I will bat for you too. Love, Ant Min

Leita was by far one of the most caring people I have had the pleasure of meeting. She will be greatly missed!

After being out of town for over a week I just read the news about Leita. To her family, I am so sorry for your loss. But I also rejoice with you that she has now been totally healed and is in the presence of her Heavenly Father.

Father God:
All of Leita's friends, like ourselves, are grateful that she not only lives on in eternity with you, but that she remains on earth through all of our great memories of her. Our primary concern now is that you give deep comfort to Mark, Stan, and Min plus Leita and Mark's children. They need the strength only you can provide. Bob and I pray for these things in the name of Jesus who is Leita's Savior. Amen

Mark - Leita has been my favorite cousin and I am going to miss her greatly. During all of her battles with cancer and other health problems, she was still encouraging others (as well as myself). Her trust in God to help her on a daily basis and her ability to praise him even during the tough times were an inspiration to me. I know that she is now rejoicing in heaven.

May God give you strength and encouragement in these days ahead. May He give you wisdom to guide your family and...

Dear Mark and Family:
I first met Leita when I went to college. She was positive and a great encourager. I think she remained that way to the very end. Her focus was eternal and I look forward to seeing her in heaven. May the peace of God that passes all understanding sustain you in the coming days.

Mark,
Even though I know Leita is Home, I was saddened to learn of her passing. Her whole being sparkled, and there is no doubt that those who knew and loved her will feel her absence. I am so glad the two of you had each other and that your love overflowed to so many others. May God's arms hold you and yours close.

Dear Stan and Min,
My memory of your sister, Leita, is so special. She was a delight to know. I well remember the trip to International Institute at Estes Park, CO. A group of us from the NM District stopped at The Waffle House in Colorado Springs. Leita ordered 3 waffles by mistate instead of 3 pancakes. It was so funny, we never have forgotten it.

I was very saddened to learn of Leita's passing; but am so thankful for her devout Christian life. We will meet...

Leita was one of my favorite "older" teenagers. I liked her because she was so funny; so loving; a contagious smile and laughter. The angels with laugh with her, I'm sure.
