A huge loss in my life has occurred with the passing of my Gramma Lady. She was such a dear sweet, creative, and witty woman. If I could live my life with half the grace that she carried, I would be delighted.
I will miss you greatly, Gram!

We lived next door on Maryland, and I will always remember your mother's smile and the comforting words she gave when my father and mother passed away. She will truly be missed by all those that had the honor of knowing her.

Dear Leebens Family,

My Mother, Muriel Nesheim and I are both heart broken over Nancy's death. Mother so enjoyed having her as a next door neighbor at Westwood. She told me she doesn't know what she is going to do without Nancy. I so enjoyed visiting with Nancy when I would visit Mother. Your Mother was such a beautiful lady, both inside and out. Her death will leave a void in Mother's life that cannot ever be filled. Our sincere sympathy to you all.
