LiAnne Marie Leaveck
June 9th, 1965 - Sept. 19th, 2017
LiAnne Marie Leaveck, 52, of Pagosa Springs, CO was welcomed into the Kingdom of Heaven on September 19th, 2017, joining her mother, Jeannine; sisters, Michelle and Laurinne; and brother, Timothy, uncle, Donald Croarkin.
LiAnne was born on June 9, 1965, to Lawrence and Jeannine (Croarkin) Leaveck in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

She worked for Western Horseman Magazine in Colorado Springs as a typesetter before moving to Pagosa Springs in 1999.
She cared deeply for those around her, most especially her cats, her family, and her community in Pagosa Springs. She had a bubbly and kind personality and was always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. Her passions included scrap-booking, writing, cooking, salsa dancing, helping the elderly, and all things purple. LiAnne will live on in the kindness she showed, the comfort she shared, and the love she brought into our lives.

Lianne my sister. I will miss all of are talks and playing phone tag. Will never forget how happy you were to stand up for Tim and my wedding. It was so meant to be. I know you loved that dress and still wore it. I love you and miss you. Say Hi to Tim. No fighting!!! You will always be in my heart. Just think we would have been going to Puerto Vallarta this month. Love you Sister.
