Leland Don Hornberger Obituary

Leland Don, born November 22, 1921 and went with our Lord on April 27, 1986. Olga Louise, born December 30, 1921, made her journey on January 17, 2002. They owned and operated K-9 Coiffures in Colorado Springs for many years, and dearly loved this community. They are sadly missed by their entire family: Renee & Nita Dolen, Michelle and Trisha Bliss, Tony Dolen, Mark and Jeanne Hornberger, Justin Jerrod and Alexis Hornberger. Dear Mom and Dad: We wanted to let you know how very much we miss the two of you. We do take comfort knowing that you are together in eternity, but we still miss you both immensely. The customers still come into the shop and remember all the special qualities that ya'll had and, every day, we think of you both as we go about the business of running our grooming shop. You know, if it weren't for the two of you, we wouldn't have had such a successful business to take care of our children with. Thank you so much for all of your love and your constant support, even though you are not here with us. We love you both endlessly and will continue on with this life, living by all of the good things we were taught. As we grow older, we realize more and more how precious this life is, and we are so blessed to have had the two of you in ours. Rest peacefully and know that we all love and miss you dearly. Renee, Nita, Michelle, Tricia and Tony

What a wonderful tribute to your loved ones. I recognized your names and thought I'd let you know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. You are always on my mind especially when I remember how understanding and supportive you were when Max & I needed you. I'll never forget. You helped me through such a difficult time. Your parents would be so proud of you with all that you do.
