I have know Leda for many years, met her through our sewing interests, had many a good visit with her. Actually she came to me at Rosewood a few months ago, and said I remember you, we sewed together at different classes! Was nice she remembered me. Deepest sympathy to her family. Sincerely, Joan Hartwick

I'm sorry to see that Leda has passed away. I've known Leda since she moved to Huron Twp. when she was in Grade 10 at RDHS and I was in Grade 9. I didn't see her for many years after high school until she started coming to South Kinloss Presbyterian Church. She attended faithfully until she moved to R-Villa. She was a valued member of our W.M.S. and usually signed up to lead the November meeting because Remembrance Day was so important to her. We have missed her. Sincere sympathy, Marilyn MacIntyre

I knew Leda through the Lucknow Legion and she also always attended the Lucknow Legion Seniors dinners when we used to have them. I always enjoyed visiting with her and found her to be very interesting,
