Park City, UT- Heather Anne Harris Leavy passed away on March 28, 2023 after a long illness. She was born at Holy Cross Hospital in Salt Lake City on June 25, 1969. Heather was a beautiful, free spirit who loved everyone she met and was never afraid to talk to a new friend. A graduate of The Carden School in Salt Lake and Judge Memorial High School, she attended the University of California in Berkeley. She was well traveled, having been throughout western Europe by the time she was two and a half and through over half of the U.S and the Philippines by her mid-twenties. Among her favorite times were those spent with her Grandmother, Willamina Harris in Quincy, Massachusetts where she had a free run of the Adams Historic Home, her time as a retailer in Nantucket, and especially the many times in San Francisco visiting her Grandmother, Mary Bellis, all her aunts, and playing with her cousin, Mary Alice Laznibat.

Many good times were had in Salt Lake in the company of her "adopted" Grandparents, Edmund and Marjorie Sperry and their extended family.
