I am sorry to hear of Claude's passing and though it has been many years, I can see his gentle smile. Hoping you have peace and the comfort of many fond memories.

Mark and Joanne - very sorry to hear about your loss. love, ginger barna - linda pryor and tari trusty

Precious Mark and Joann:
What can I speak about Claude Leach?
First and most importantly, he is a child of our Heavenly Father and is now in His presence. Claude's love for our Lord was evident to all who were in his presence for any length of time.
He served his church, his family, his community and anyone who was in need, expecting nothing in return.
I became aquainted with Claude at Woody's Market several years ago. I remember his smile, kindness and positve,funny greetings as I worked at the "Order Desk." And in the recesses of my mind I remember he usually had a toothpick with him when he would come down the steps at Woody's after lunch and always a wave and a smile after he clocked back and was on his way down the steps and back to the Produce department.
As my life moved on after graduation, I would see Claude occassionally out and about, never expecting to live 3 houses down from him to this time. God has a way of keeping us in contact with special, one of a kind people doesn't He?!
Mark and Joann, as these next days, months and years move forward Claude will be with you every day, blessing you with one of a kind memories, his love and his testimony, custom-made by The Master of Legacies.
Claude has given all those he loved, who loved him, and whom he touched on the Lord's behalf, the best gift ever: his life redeemed, resored, and made whole without blemish. Now that's a promise!
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Patty Sandmann

JoAnne and Mark - we were so sad to hear of Claude's passing - he was such a wonderful person always a joke or two a hug and a kiss. We worked with him at Woody's and ran into him often at Walgreen's as well - he was a wonderful person. We are holding you in our thoughts and prayers.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Claude was always such a genuinely nice man. I know he'll be greatly missed. He was a great person to work with.

Joann and Mark...God bless you and comfort you in your loss. Claude recently told me how pleased he was to be an Elder in the Church. He was a very pleasant man and made everyone feel special.
I know you from Woody's. Went to the viewing and could not find a parking place. Shows you how special Claude was to many people!!!

I was so sad to hear of Clude's passing. I was one of those people who looked forward to one of his hugs at church on Sunday mornings. He will truly be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I knew Claude from working at Walgreens Pharmacy in Miamisburg first as a patient then I got the joy to work with him as a co-worker. My thoughts and prayers go out to Mrs. Leach and his son Mark, i know his absence will be noticed for a very long time. God is great and Claude i will see you again one day.

Joann & Mark,
Our thoughts and prayers are with both of you. We dearly loved Claude. He was such a kind, caring, and loving man. He will truly be missed by us. May your loving memories carry you through these difficult times.

Mark and Jo you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Claude was such a warm and friendly man. I will miss his wonderful hugs. So glad that I saw him this past Friday.

I am so extremely saddened by the loss of the wonderful godly man that I have been blessed to work with at walgreens for 7 years and not a day went by that he did not have a hug or a smile or always willing to pray for my family,he spoke of Jo as a angel the love he had for her could be seen on his face, I will miss this man always, there will always be a special place in my heart for him, I love you Jo and Mark, always hope Elsie Stupp

A kind and wonderful man who will be missed so much!!!
