Everytime I saw Leanne she was always full of joy. She would make me laugh remembering old memories and creating new ones. I am proud to call her my friend. I will cherish my memories we shared together.
Dear Sam & Jeff, We are so saddened by your Mom’s unexpected passing. We know she loved the many diving adventures and was doing what she loved most . . .
We will miss your Mom, especially on warm summer days at the lake. Warmest Regards, Skip and Pam
My heartfelt condolences to everyone whose life was made better by knowing Leanne. She was a wonderful lady who always had a kind smile for those around her. She never failed to brighten my day whenever I ran into her over the years. She will be deeply missed…
Leanne was a great friend. She will be missed and fondly remembered. She was so proud of her children, Sam and Jeff.
Leanne was a key member of the APU team at PSD for many years. She was dedicated to her work and had a great sense of humour enjoying life to the full. The team will keep her in our hearts forever.
I had the pleasure of working with Leanne on the Boeing FCS / BCTM program. She was a terrific systems engineer at work, and a wise and compasionate friend outside of work. I will always treasure the time I got to spend with Leanne.
Leanne was a great neighbor. We enjoyed her and her animals she was so fond of. She worked tirelessly in her yard and always had many projects in the works. We will miss her smiling face and positive attitude. Our condolences to her family.
Leanne was a great friend and dive buddy. We had 4 dive trips to warm water together and she made them memorable with her smile and laughter. Having lunch and dinner while at home and riding the “DUCKS” in Seattle round out the fun times we had. I miss her and will always have a warm spot in my heart for her along with my memories. My condolences to her family.
Don and Shirley and Family….our thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time.
My condolences. My prayers are with your family for a speedy recovery.
Leanne was the most wonderful friend and neighbor. She always had a new yard or house project and she always had a smile that lit up the block. She was kind and compassionate to both human and animal. It breaks my heart that I will never again see her,across the street, mowing her yard in her adorable funky outfits. I can’t imagine how devastating this is for her family. My prayers are for them.
Sammy and Jeffrey, Words can not express our sorrow we are feeling for you and the rest of your family. If you need anything, anytime, please know we are only a phone call away. Love you, Suzie, Brandon and Cory
My sincere and deepest condolence to the family and loved ones.
May God provide you comfort in this time of bereavement.
Leanne and I worked together for years at Boeing, and she will be remembered in my heart. Mary and I want to tell the family how very sorry we are at her passing. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to you all. She will leave a star shining in the heavens as well as our hearts.
Although Leanne and I worked in different states, she always managed to send her enthusiasm and excitement for life and her adventures through the miles…..Her loss was a shock and there are so many impacted and saddened by her loss, she will not soon be forgotten.
my sincerest heartfelt sympathies to her family and pets; her love for life will shine on for a very long time.
May God bring you peace in this most difficult time
Our deepest Sympathies,
Tim and Barbara Garmon (Sternberg)
(Co-workers at Boeing, Huntington Beach, CA)
Leanne always lit up the room when she was present … so full of energy and enthusiasm and empathy. Enjoyed working with her off and on over the years.
We knew Leanne from the early Boeing days on the 757 project. She was part of that special group that not only worked together cohesively, but socialized extensively outside of work. At the time, we didn’t know what a special group that was and Leanne was one of the reasons. She was always fun, endearing and up to do anything. We are sorry we didn’t stay in better contact with her over the years and were very touched how Sam & Jeff handled themselves at her Memorial. She would have been so proud. Our sympathies to her entire family for your loss.
Dear Shirley and Don and Family,
It is our hope that the love and support that you are receiving, along wiith the many happy memories, will give you comfort at this time.
You are in our prayers.
Sincerely, Gail, Cheryl and Michelle
We’re so sorry to lose a lovely neighbor. Leanne was full of life, and we miss her. Our sympathy and prayers are with all who loved her.
Leanne was a friendly and wonderful next-door neighbor, we miss her very very much. Sam and Jeff, please know our door is open should you need anything. Our sympathy to her entire family for your loss.
did not know her but from one daughter to another i am so sorry for your loss there is nothing one can say ecept i am so sorry
I worked with Leanne on many projects, 737, 757 programs and she was my Lead for awhile on the APU program. We were very close friends, we enjoyed going out to dinner and talk about old times. I will miss deeply, she was and Angel and always will be.
Dear Don and Shirley,
I was shocked to see Leanne’s obituary. I was looking for directions to a home in Normandy Park for my sister and decided to see if you still lived in the area. I was just talking to my mom, who is now 91, how sweet she was as a little girl. As a mother, I can’t imagine the hurt and loss you are feeling.
God be with you and your family.
