Leta and Don were two of my favorite people. I loved living next door to them in Auburn and the many Boxing Day dinners. She was a wonderful person.

My sympathy to the Johnson family. Just as Jesus looked to his Heavenly Father for strength and power in his time deep sorrow (John 11:39-44), so can each of you do the same.

It seems like only yesterday that this picture was taken with her great grandchild London (who is now 2). I couldn't have been happier to have my Grandma Leta here in Colorado for the past 4 years she has lived with us. It might have not been her dream to move to Colorado but I could not explain in better words that I am so glad she was able to get to know her great grandchildren whom adore her. You will be missed and thought upon often Grandma, we love you!

Leta was able to spend a few years with her son Robert and get to know her granddaughter and great grandchildren in Colorado prior to her decision to move back to her home state. Leta loved sitting out on the deck and watching the many humming birds zooming across the deck and feeding on the humming bird feeders. Once she saw a bobcat in our back yard, that was pretty exciting. Leta was able to get back into her sewing while in Colorado and made a couple of very nice quilts for her great grandchildren and they will be cherished always. Our hearts a saddened by her passing. We will miss her.
