She was a loving and devoted mother to five children: Gravin, Christen, Ashley, Alex, and Joseph. Leeann's life was further blessed by her four grandchildren: Parker, Jaiden, Grayson, and Scarlett, who brought her immeasurable joy.

Leeann is reunited with her longtime beloved partner, Richard Costa, who predeceased her in November 2020. She is also remembered by Rich's three children: Richie, Ashley, and Aaron.

Her legacy will live on through the love and beautiful memories she shared with all who had the honor of knowing her.

Leeann's family and friends will continue to honor her life by keeping her spirit alive in their hearts. She will be dearly missed but never forgotten.

Auntie Lee, You will be so missed, but cherished forever in many hearts. Although touch was lost, I´m grateful for the times we did have, and for the talks we had when I got older. You always made it fun! And you always had such kind and loving words for me at times you saw I was going through a rough patch , or experiencing a loss. Things like that do more than you think; and in situations where nothing can help, are often the only things that give us strength to cope. and I know you were that person for many. Love you forever.
