Linda Palmer Condolences to you all. I worked with Leita at the Cobble Hill Post Office and felt like we had that special ‘connection ‘. We laughed about the same stuff and there was always that ‘twinkle’ in her eyes of unspoken thoughts. We met by chance at Costco just before Christmas and had a wonderful chat about what had been happening since we last saw each other. It is hard to comprehend that this precious lady is no longer with us. Hugs to you all …x

I was so saddened and reminiscent when I heard of Leita’s passing. She was an absolutely beautiful woman from her heart to her capacity to love. I always loved how she would throw a wink into a sentence making the receiver feel even more special than she already had. My condolences and empathy to you Geordie, Ken,Don,and Dan.
Love always, Laurie Matthes (Heath)
