My deepest sympathies Cheryl, John and family. I always loved her laugh! Many, many fond memories with her, Uncle Fred and all of you…the club cabin, Carroll Street, Juniata holidays, weddings, and many more. Aunt Lea for many years came to our house weekly…Mom fixed her hair back in the day and they used to be shopping buddies. Your family created so many wonderful memories with her. She was very blessed. Aunt Lea Lea was well loved.
Dear. Cheryl and John sending my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. Lea was my best sister in law and friend when I lived on Juniata. She trusted me with her hair style every Friday. She was fun to be around and we shared many good times. We often talked about our stubborn husbands who were brothers and were pretty much alike in some matters! I always loved her name ❤️
I sure do remember those weekly hair visits. Good memories on Juniata❤️
Cheryl & John – I am so sorry to hear about Aunt Lea. I know what a difficult time this is. She was always very kind and enjoyable to be around. Please know all of you are in my prayers.
Love, Babsie
Oh, Cheryl and Clyde, We are very sad for your family’s loss. I never met your sweet mom, but I’m certain that she had the sparkle in her eye that you inherited! It is never easy to say goodbye. God bless and keep you and give you peace. With lots of love, Debbie and Greg
Please know Aunt Lee is in our thoughts and prayers. We will miss her big smile and cutest laugh. She was always so caring and happy to see us! Prayers to you always !!!
Love Joan
