My close freineship with Leili began in Bremen when Leili, Taimi and I made the best of the time we had together before coming to America. We continued communicating regularly until Leili moved to Clearwater.
Siiras, südamlik kaastunne pojale perekonnaga ja vennale
Puhka rahus.
Hilja (Säärits) Bergey

My husband Ken and I went to Leili's funeral and accompanied her to her final resting place. 
My friendship with Leili goes way back: we were both 10 years old when we first met in the Estonian refugee camp in Germany. We attended the Estonian school there and became best friends. I was fortunate when Leili also came to the US; we were able to continue our friendship in Indianapolis. Leili has been my best and dearest friend, and I cherish all the wonderful times and memories we have shared. She has been a big part of my life; there will be a big void now without her. 
My husband and I extend sympathy to her family.
Kallis Leili, 
Sa olid mu parim sõber ja ma tunnen Sinust suurt puudust.

I have very fond memories working with Leili at Riley. She was a wonderful woman and we all will miss her so. I can still see her beautiful smile. She will be missed. Loving thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

Leili will be missed by us neighbors across the road. She never knew our dog Sam, who she so dearly love passed away the next day after she moved we just could'nt bring ourselves to break her heart. We'll miss our talks on warm afternoons with you Leili as we sat on your porch. Our warmest condolences to your son and his family and to your brother and his family also. I hope you see now, there is more to experience past the trees Leili and past the pain and sorrows of this world. Rest in peace. Jerry and Jana Curry.

Deepest sympathy and prayers for the family. I worked with Leili over 30 years ago, but still have vivid great memories and can hear her voice as if it was yesterday. RIP Leili.

Leili will always be remember at Riley Children's Hospital.  She was kind  and sweet with the little patients.  She talked of Olef and later of Alex often and was very proud of both.  Thank you for including the pictures.  She was a gem.

I too worked with Leili @ Riley Hospital..She was a great person and I already miss her stories and laughter!  I know she's making them laugh where she is now, but I doubt she will get to do her card readings!  Rest In Peace...you so deserve it!

I worked with Leili at Riley Hospital for seven years. She loved her patients and we always had a good time!!  Many happy memories for me and others who knew her!!  She sure loved her Olev and family. God Bless your family at this time. I will truly miss her!!

In 1977 I started working with Leili at Riley Children's Hospital. She was dedicated to her young patients and was loved by the staff. We still share stories of her antics,,,,and her name always brings a smile!
Over the years I heard stories of her loving parents, she was so proud of her brother and his family, and she absolutely adored her son,his wife and her grandson. She talked so lovingly of all of you!
My thoughts and prayers will be with all of you as you say your final farewell to her.

Leili you were one of a kind!  Miss your funny stories and laugh!

Your,laughter,jokes and all our girls' days out will forever let me smile while, thinking of you. You were truly one of a kind. Missing You!

Our, Prayers and thoughts are with you and our friend, neighbor "Leili", will be missed greatly. From all of us here, her extended family. Rhonda and Alex Sizemore, Sherry, Bud and R.C. Emerson, Amanda and David Barnett all of us send you nothing but happy memories. GOD Bless You.
