Our dear lady, Leona went to be with her Lord on January 17, 2019, at the age of 94 years, 4 months and 1 day.
Leona was the only child born to Gus and Annie Witt, who predeceased her. Born on the Witt farm east of Weimar in Osage and raised on farming. She and her mother did all the farming and whatever had to be done on the farm. They raised cows, milked them and sold the milk to the Carnation Co.
After the years passed and Leona moved to Pasadena to be close to her friends, all her family had passed on. She later went into the restaurant business. Later was hurt in one restaurant and had to retire. After that she started a babysitting business for years.
Leona was a fun loving person. She was a great domino player, always ready to get out the dominos, play and most always she would win. Leona was a great pet lover and had her little dog “Bella” who loved her also.
Leona leaves many friends, a lot of cousins and nieces and nephews. She will be gravely missed by those of us who knew and loved her.
