B. LEGGETT Obituary

B. Nadine Leggett

"Jay C. and Nadine Leggett

Together Again"

age 93, of Bowerston, Ohio, died early Saturday morning, March 2, 2019, in the Community Hospice Truman House at New Philadelphia following a brief illness. She was born July 27, 1925 in Sherrodsville, Ohio, and was the daughter of the late Herman and Ida Pearl Randal Wright. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Jay C. Leggett, who died June 25, 2015; a sister, Naomi Wright Weidleman; and a brother, Randal Wright.

Nadine retired from The Timken Company at Canton, Ohio, after 40 years of service as a statistical secretary.

On September 10, 1955, she married Jay Conway Leggett and together they lived in Dover, Ohio for 35 years after they married until they settled in their home just outside of Leesville. Throughout the course of their married life, Jay and Nadine Leggett were virtually inseparable. She attended the First Presbyterian Church at Uhrichsville, Ohio; and was a 1943 graduate of the former Sherrodsville High School. Other than the time she spent engaged in activities with Jay, Nadine's passion was working outside in her yard and rock garden at her Leesville home. She was very adept at crocheting, which proved to be one of Nadine's favorite hobbies.

She will be missed by her family, neighbors, and friends. She is survived by two nieces, two nephews, and a cousin.

Funeral services will be conducted 2:00 p.m., Tuesday, March 5, 2019, in the Baxter-Gardner Funeral Home at Sherrodsville with Pastor Mark Unrue officiating. Interment will follow next to her husband in the Longview Cemetery at Bowerston. Calling hours will be held Tuesday from 1:00 until time of services at 2:00 P.M. in the funeral home. Contributions in Nadine's memory may be made to Community Hospice of Tuscarawas County, 716 Commercial Avenue S.W., New Philadelphia, Ohio 44663, or the First Presbyterian Church, 633 North Main Street, Uhrichsville, Ohio 44683.

I was blessed to know Nadine and Jay as regular customers of the Tuscarawas County Public Library System. Our library staff looked forward to their regular library visits. They were so pleasant and took an interest in the staff. We love all of our customers, but there are some that touch us in a special way. That was true of Nadine and Jay. We all dearly loved them. Our library, as well as many other organizations in the area, were blessed by their generosity in addition to their presence. They were an inspiration on how to live a life of kindness and love. I am better for having known them.

I'm so sad to see that Nadine has passed away. I sat in front of her at The Timken Company fresh out of high school 50 years ago and we exchanged cards and letters until this past year. My deepest sympathy to her survivors and may she rest in peace with the love of her life.
