Dear Perk and Family,

We were so sad to learn of Leanah's death. She was a beautiful person and you were both dear, dear neighbors to us at Lakeside. We miss you both very much. We am so sorry we missed her memorial service but we were on a trip out of state.

Our love and prayers are with you and your family.

I had the pleasure of meeting Perk and Leanah as next door neighbors in 1969. Over the decades, Gary and I made many many trips to Arkansas to visit them at their wonderful lake house. The warmth and caring they most gave made us feel like one of the family even spending Thanksgiving in 2008 with the extended Floyd clan. She will be deeply missed and we cherish the wonderful memories we had with her and Perk. Our sympathies go out to the family and we hope they know how much we loved Leanah.
