Leatha loved music, children and animals. She enjoyed her daily walks down to the “Village” in West Vancouver up until her last year. She was a long-time resident of West Vancouver and worked at Woodward’s Food Dept. in Park Royal, as a cashier for many years. She kept active all her life: walking, square-dancing, golfing and ten pin bowling. She had many friends at Encore where she went daily for coffee and also at White Spot where she would occasionally go for meals with family members. The Bingo at the Elks in North Vancouver and St. Thomas Aquinas in the evenings and the Casinos on the occasional weekend kept her busy.
The family wishes to thank Evergreen House staff, Lions Gate Hospital staff and Vancouver Coastal Health care aides; her many friends, especially at the White Spot, Jerry’s (Encore) and Wedgwood Terrace for being a large part of her life.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to a charity of your choice in remembrance of Leatha.
A celebration of her life will take place at a future date.
