Leighann and I met when we were 13-14 yrs old. We had a lifelong friendship and had a lot of great times..wonderful memories.  I will cherish the many hours on the phone as teens trying my best to analyze the teenage drama..ha. I will always remember the traveling we did together to Houston Texas, to Nashville Tn,etc..Leighann had a love for God, our country and our military vets.  She and I went to many concerts together but I was able to drag her to see Mark Chestnutt which she might not have enjoyed as much as I did,haha. I will always love you, hon. you were and still very special to me. 

Leigh Ann was a ray of sunshine. I am going to forever miss her smile and sweet giggle. She and I were huge TRUMP supporters and loved the conversations we had.  Going to miss her dearly. Know GOD is holding her and she is walking the street of gold. 

I remember everyday Leigh Ann exemplified walking with Christ. I enjoyed the talks and lunches we had together. She was always encouraging. We loved testifying of the many things God has done in our lives to one another with joy and laughter. She is greatly missed, but  the memories and things she shared with me will live on in my life as I  strive to reach perfection in my walk with Christ. 

The host of family and friends is continuously in my prayers. 

Leigh Ann was a friend of mine before we actually ever met face to face.  Currently I am employed with EPB but long before I was hired,  Leanne would help me over the phone  with our construction accounts ....when  I was hired  Leigh Ann and I finally met on the credit and collections floor … I remember hugging her and we laughed so much !!! We could finally put a face with the voice and she was certainly everything I had imagined ! I could always count on Leigh Ann to help me and many times I asked for her prayers ...She always took time to lend a helping hand  and she  certainly had a gift for helping others.  I remembered thinking  wow, she's just the same over the phone as she is in person! Oh, how I loved that ...She was such an encourager and she will always hold a special place in my heart! I am beyond heartbroken and there are so many questions  that may never be answered but one thing I know for sure is heaven has surely gained an Angel . Leigh Ann truly made this world a better place  and I want to become more like her !  I never heard her say one bad thing about anyone and she always looked for the best in people .  I will sure miss her sweet spirit and the twinkle I always saw in her eyes !!! She was like ray of sunshine ...Praying for all of you! 



To Leigh Ann's family,
     I worked with Leigh Ann at EPB.  We spoke on the phone a great deal.   Leigh Ann was a cheerful and caring co worker.  She always had smile in her voice.  My deepest condolences for your loss.  

Leigh Ann and I became instant friends when she came to the credit and collections department and she has been one of my best friends since. She encouraged me, supported me, loved me and prayed for me and I her. My heart will forever have a hole from the loss of my dear friend. She was one of the most genuinely kind, gentle, caring souls that I've ever had the honor of knowing and I am forever changed by her presence in my life. She was soft spoken & always tried to find the good in people. She had the cutest giggle. I know she is enjoying her new wings but I, as a selfish human, sure do miss her. I will love you forever my friend and miss you every day.

Too soon did Leigh Ann leave us, but I am so glad to get to meet her. To my brother-in-law Jay, I can't imagine what you are going through, but I promise you God will see you through. Be strong and don't loose sight of God's love for you. Leigh Ann showed God's love and I know she would want you to carry on that love. To Leigh Ann's parents, I know from meeting you once that you are good Christian people. God is your strength, pour your heart's pain out to Him, and He will give you rest. Only He can give you the peace that can calm your hearts troubled waters. God bless you all and we are praying for you all.

You've gained your wings,
You taught us how to love in spite of;
We will always remember your smile,
Thankful for the time you were with us;
Leigh Ann, you were an angel walking amongst us on Earth,
And now you've gained your wings;
The legacy you left taught us how to fly and now it's your time to fly high,
You've gained your wings, you touched so many lives,
Beautiful, loving that's how you are described;
You've gained your wings.

Leigh Ann,  
You have touched our hearts with your genuine warmth and contagious smile.  You leave a legacy of kindness, generosity, and a sincere spirit of unconditional love.  You will never be forgotten.

You were never without a smile on your face or a kind word on your lips. You will be forever missed, Leigh Ann. Our world is a little less brighter without you in it. Rest in peace, sweet Leigh Ann. I'm glad I had the opportunity to know you.
