Leigha Marie Burton was born at Oklahoma memorial hospital in Oklahoma City at 8:42pm on July 25, 1990, Weighing 5 lb. 12 oz and 19 in long to the proud parents of Traci Burton and Gonzalo McNeely, Jr.

She had never been married or had any children but was a amazing auntie and godmother. As a child she was happy and always smiling.... "My little chocolate baby". She later blossomed into a very tall, beautiful woman. Leigha was the older and only big sister to Quantray Deon Burton & Latray Demond Burton. They looked up to their big sis literally; she was always much taller than them growing up. Leigha gave her life to Christ at a young age. She attended Redeemer Lutheran Church with her grandparents, her mother, and brothers. John Marshall High School is where she then became a social butterfly and met some of her dearest friends. She later graduated in 2008. Helping and assisting the handicapped and elderly was just one of the things that she loved to do. She became a nurse aide for her grandparents as well as became her Mother's Home health assistant. Home health and customer service was her career. On her spare time, she enjoyed being an amazing auntie to her two nephews Kaison & Kaidon... after her auntie duties she enjoyed writing lyrics and writing poems and rapping. Music was one of her passions. She went by the name of "TANGO".

Leigha leaves behind a host of aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, brothers, family, and friends.

Leigha will Forever be Missed but Never Forgotten. Mama loves you!!! Aka Frail Ma Nail
