Leah was such a bright light at Avon, she sat across from me and her uplifting energy will be missed everyday. We were so lucky to have her in our lives, even for a short time, she left a lasting impact. I am so sorry for your loss and praying for your family.

Corine, Don, and Aaron. My heart is in pieces for you. Tears are falling. It seems like just yesterday that I was babysitting her. And she was the most beautiful flower girl ever. I am in shock over the news. I will pray for you for the days ahead. Losing a child (sibling) is gut wrenching. But our Heavenly Father can hold you during this difficult time. There are simply no words. Love one another and know that she was so deeply loved here on earth. Love, hugs, and prayers to you all.

Don, Corine and Aaron,
There are no words that can describe this tragedy, and I find it hard to understand that I won't be able to meet Leah again in this life. I remember Leah as the funnies and goofies little sister, so full of joy, love and affection for her family and friends. She was the sister I never had, and I could not have asked for a better person to fill that role. She will always hold a special place in my heart. I am forever grateful for the time I got to spend with all of you, and I miss you all. I pray and hope our paths will cross again soon, and that I some day will meet Leah again.
Please accept my deepest condolences and prayers, With love, Tor

Leah was my student and later my student assistant at CVCA. She was spunky and made me smile. The thought of heaven is a bit sweeter for those of us who have a child waiting for our arrival.I am praying for your family during this time of missing her.

Dear Corine, Don and Aaron,
I remember Leah as a faithful fan at Aaron's CVCA hockey games. She always had a smile to share. She was proud to represent CVCA in gymnastic meets. My heart aches for your family at the sudden passing of Leah. I can't imagine the grief you are experiencing right now. I pray that you receive comfort in sharing your precious memories of Leah with family and friends. I pray you are comforted by knowing Leah is with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
Love to all,
Vicki Brower

Leah was a warm, kind soul and I only heard such great things about her here at AVON - including her love for the Spanish language! She was smart and attentive to details. We're so privileged to have worked with her, even though it was only a short time. May she rest in peace.

Don, Corrine and Aaron - my prayers are with all of you. I cannot begin to imagine the shock but knowing the life Leah lived was firmly rooted in Christ - i am confident she is actually giving you the comfort you need. Since i heard i think back to the days Don, Tim/Sonja, Robin and I were trying to figure out how to raise our babies. We knew that our kids would be our greatest challenge and our achievement. You both can certainly see your achievement realized in Leah!!! I love you all!!

Please accept my prayers and condolences for your terrible loss of precious Leah. I worked alongside Leah at a retreat at CVCA with 7th graders, and as a parent, it was such a treat for me to get to know another prior CVCA student and then college student. She was a delight, super smiley, so kind and positive. I was nervous but she put me at ease. We had so much fun at the retreat and had a blessed time sharing Jesus and impacting the lives of those 7th graders while learning about each other. :)
I'm shocked at her loss and my mom heart is so so sad. You were so blessed with a daughter like Leah.

My boyfriend and I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Leah last month. We met her and her friend Jack while visiting a bar/restaurant in NYC using the NYC Tippler booklet. She was an absolute delight to be around. Vibrant and bubbly personality. We all got to talking for a couple of hours and we were all planning a meet up soon. I'm so saddened to hear of her passing and my heart goes out to her family during this difficult time. RIP sweet girl.
We are so sorry for your loss.
Lots of love and prayers from NYC.

Leah was an amazing friend, so full of light and laughter. I remember how much she used to make me laugh, and remember the two of us giggled nonstop when we were on a flight back from the Dominican Republic and were passing the time on the airplane overanalyzing the magazine in the seatback.
She was so talented, smart, and could do anything she set her mind to.
I will miss her dearly.
