Not sure what to say?

yes, I finished my HS @ Warren, I remember her sister Patricia, and Kathy who all road the Warren school bus. I had 3 bros, 3 sisters, another BIG Catholic family. the boys all went to St Patrick's in Wadsworth, memories............

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Miss Leable. Such a Fantastic teacher, and even better person. Miss Leable helped me immensely in English. She didn´t just teach; she made class and school, enjoyable and fun! Miss Leable is sorely missed. . May she rest in peace at the right hand of the Father.

Marj & I became friends working at Williams Sonoma & our friendship lasted long after we left Williams Sonoma. We come from different backgrounds, but we had the same sense of humor & we shared a love for food (esp. a great burger) & good restaurants. I miss her terribly. She was a dear friend & friends like her don't come along very often in your life.

She changed my life by encouraging me to go to college. I will forever appreciate her and hope she did not suffer.

Marge was my colleague at OLCHS for many years. She was always willing to give a helping hand. I loved her sense of humor and her wit. She will be missed.

Ms. Leable was an amazing instructor!!! I has here for AP English Honors in 1989/90. She brought baked goods for the class all the time! She was a a fabulous teacher and really encouraged my love of reading. She had some of us "silly string" Mr. O wearing paper bags as a disguise. She was clearly a prankster!! RIP!!!

Ms. Leable was a compassionate and dedicated teacher. She was extremely witty and could verbally spar with anyone many times putting us arrogant smart alecs in our place.

I am so sorry for your loss. Some of my happiest memories are at your farm when Margie and I were in St. Pat´s. I am so glad she had a good life. My best to all her family.
