To Leah's Mother & Ashley,

Leah was a friend to my daughter at LWCS, who was new there that year, and I'll never forget Leah's sunshiney disposition and that positive energy she radiated, must've been a product of a very loving family. What a horrible loss. My heart goes out to you, Dixie. With all my heartfelt sorrow and prayers. - Courtney's mom.

When I think of Leah, she brings such a warm feeling to my heart and a smile to my face. I miss her voice and her laugh; the way she called me "Care Bear" whenever I saw her! I know she is lighting up the days with sunshine and the nights with twinkling stars wherever she is. I love you Leah, Matt and Brad. I am thinking of you all.

I was greatly sadended when I heard of Leah's death. I knew her in high school many years ago and she was such a good person to have as a friend. She was caring and so very thouhtful all the time that I knew her through our high school years. Even though I did not keep in touch with her after we graduted I still feel like I have lost someone who I was very close too in some way. My deepest condolences to the MacRae family. She will be missed so much by everyone Im sure of that. I know I will never forget her beautiful smile and what a good person she was to me while we were friends. Leah I will miss you and know that you are resting in Gods arms.
