What a beautiful tribute to your wife, mother, grandmother and sister. We have fond memories of her from when I babysat while Jimmy and Leona would go to the races on Saturday evenings and how she went out of her way to make you feel important. She was a genuine friend, we´ve thought of her often driving past the house. We send our thoughts and condolences to you all.

So very sorry to hear this. Love, thoughts and prayers go out to Brett and her family. Leona was a very special person. Always so friendly, energetic and so much fun. Remembering great travel times together with her and Brett. Golfing in the Poconos, couple golf´s tournaments at Kannon, Hawaii and Las Vegas trips, we all had so much fun together. Lots of laughing and special times together. We think of her often. Rest in Peace Leona you are missed

I was a high school student that walked to Henry and Hines and worked with Leona. I remember her bubbly personality and her ability to make people smile! I was a kid back then but at 73 now I still remember her! My thoughts and prayers to all, May she rest in peace!

I am so sorry to hear of her passing!! I met her at Shangerla speedway in Owego, New York. She was a great lady. She was very friendly to me. I thought the world of her and Jimmy. I loved to watch him drive. He was a great sportsman. I never had a chance to meet Jimmy. Bob Adams tried so hard to arrange it but it never happened. His mother introduced me to Leona and I cherished that moment!! May they not rest in peace!!
