Ila Leyda Obituary
7/13/1939 - 11/22/2024
Ila June Leyda, 85, of Waterville, OH, passed away peacefully at her home on November 22, 2024. Born on July 13, 1939, in Cape Vincent, NY, June lived a full and vibrant life.
In February of 1962, June married the love of her life, Earl H. Leyda. Together, they built a beautiful family, and shared many wonderful years, until Earl's passing. June and Earl made homes in Cape Coral, FL, and Middle Bass Island, OH.
June had a passion for reading, knitting, bowling, and walking.
She is survived by her loving daughters, Karen M. Leyda and Laura A. Leyda; and her dear sister, Margaret Woolaver. June was preceded in death by her husband, Earl; her daughter, Debra L. Leyda; and her son, Craig H. Leyda.
The family extends a special thanks to June's dedicated aides, Laura Guy of Home Instead, and Shenese Thomas of Ohio Living Hospice, for their compassionate care and support.
June's warmth, kindness, and love will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Karen:
Allow me to re-introduce myself to you...way back when, we worked with one another at HCR-ManorCare. I always enjoyed going out to dinner with you, Barb, Danette and others. I am now completely retired and am enjoying that.
I am sorry to hear of your mother's passing.
Please feel free to keep in touch,
