Dear Leu family, My deepest sympathy in the loss of you Mom. She was always so sweet to me everytime I talked to her about any of you boys. … whether it was at parent teacher conferences or a school activity when we were watching our kids. She always had a smile!! So sorry.
Sending our deepest sympathy to the Leu family. John and Arlene Dickey (Ebenezer Reformed Church)
