Leona was a fiercely independent, loving, and strong soul whose powerful eyes could speak volumes. She radiated beauty inside and out, with a deep compassion for all living creatures and a heart capable of immense love. Artistic and competitive, she pursued life with passion, yet always made space to uplift and support others. Her presence was a gift, her friendship a blessing, and she will be deeply missed.....until we meet again my friend.

I am so sorry for your loss. Leona was one of my favorite and best managers at Goodwill. She will be greatly missed by not only her family but also her many friends.

I played clarinet along with her in band. She was always so nice. My condolences to her sons and the rest of the family.

I am so sad to hear this news. Went through school with Leona and saw her over the years, usually while I was browsing at Goodwill. Such a nice person and we are all blessed to have known her. Deepest condolences to her sons and the family.
