There are no words for the loss you've suffered. Leah was so young and had so much to live for. She spent many hours playing with our children when we were neighbors for 17 years. She was blessed with a loving husband and children. May precious memories comfort you. May God strengthen you and give you peace. Love, Leslie Wamsley, Sherri Wamsley, Mark and Kristin Wamsley, Michelle and Scott Young

I am honored and blessed to have known Leah. She was such a wonderful Mom, friend and wife. She gave so much of herself to others. I will miss seeing her outside the house with Hazel and Paxton planting flowers, playing and riding bikes. I will also never forget her kindness. She was an amazing friend and neighbor.
May God give her eternal rest and the family the strength to bear this great pain.
