Martha and family, you are in my thoughts and prayers.
I worked with Leann at Pamida many years ago. I envied her good looks and always thought she was beautiful. She was a vibrant person with a blindingly bright smile. I hope she rests in peace. L. McGregor
Leann was the sweetest nicest person. She worked with me many years ago and was instantly a friend. I missed seeing her smile and hearing her laugh. RIP
I'm heartsick over the loss of LeAnn.
My sincere condolences and prayers go out to LeAnn's family and friends.
LeAnn and I met because we adopted her greyhound, Doctor "Doc" Harwood in November 2015. Although, we never had the opportunity to meet in person, we became friends.
Over the next few years, LeAnn was always there for me as my husband and I faced some difficult life challenges. She was an earth angel.
It was a true blessing to have had LeAnn as my friend.
Rest in peace, my dear Kansas friend.
With love from Virginia
Gale and Christian Hollstein
LeAnn was a bright star in this world, she would light up the place as soon as she walked in. What an awesome & loving caregiver she was to her beautiful mom Martha & her beautiful aunt Evelyn. She was so fun to talk to, she had a sense of humor like no other & her smile & laugh will be greatly missed. Her sweet spirit will live on in all her knew her. My prayers are with you Martha, Evelyn & family.
I am so sorry for the loss of LeAnn, she was a great person to be around. She was a friend to all who knew her. Condolences to her family. She will be missed by all. Hugs to you Martha.
I’m so sorry Martha for your loss of your beautiful spirit daughter, LeAnn. LeAnn was such a special woman to this world. I always considered her as a good friend ever since we met in 2003 when we worked together at the NHC Nursing home. She was a fantastic nurse to so many. We shared so many laughs and of course just the way she laughed was special. I loved her since of humor that could brighten up your day. LeAnn was so dedicated to her Mom & her Aunt Evelyn and showed them such great respect. I last seen all 3 of these beautiful ladies celebrating Thanksgiving together just this past year. My thoughts & prayers go out to her brothers and all her family & friends because we lost an amazing lady. Rest In Peace LeAnn my dear friend.
LeAnn always made me smile those nights when we worked together at the hospital. She would always joke about how the long nights were killing her and how she wished she could retire and enjoy it. She helped me through so many struggles within my life, shared so many good times with me, including my wedding day, and she was the first person to know when we found out about our son. LeAnn was family to me and I will never forget all that we went through.
