I too was a classmate of Leah's at Jasper and my daughter, Melissa Houk, was a classmate of one of her daughter's at Notre Dame. I am sorry for your loss. I hope you all have many great memories!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. Leah will be greatly missed by so many people. We all have wonderful memories of her and the fun times we had. I will remember her most as one of our greatest fans at the Cascade H.S. and WWU basketball games. We also had lots of fun times at our Lake Stevens house. She will always live on in our memories.

My condolences for the loss of your mom, Chris. I was going through some old boxes in my garage the other day and came across a photo of you and I after a game at Cascade. I am certain your mom was there cheering us both on. What a wonderful lady she was. Keeping you and your family in my prayers. Take care, Heather
