Leah was pure joy when I knew her in high school. There was hardly ever a day that she wasn't smiling, laughing and just enjoying life. I am so glad to have that picture of her little face in my mind and know that God is holding her sweet face in His hands right now! I am praying for her children and her husband.
I will always remember leah. she was dainty and sweet but would stand up 4 anyone. she is from a great family and she modeled gods love every day. i wish i would have known her in our adult years. i did have the privledge of writing her shortly b 4 her passing. i hope she read it and knew how i felt. she was one of a kind.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. The James family was an inspiration to me as well as many others in the Castleberry School District. They stood above the crowd. May God hold you close as you mourn Leah's departure from this life.
Burke, I was very sadden to hear of your loss. My prayers go out to you and your family.
I will always feel blessed to have known Leah. She was always full of praises,hugs, and love even when she wasn't feeling her best. She would smile at me and say "Valinda, God has blessed me so much." We surprized her this year on her birthday at the Cancer Treatment Centers with a cake, and she started crying and just saying that over and over. I think that God blessed us with our Leah. We love her and will miss her dearly. Thank you so much for sharing her with us here in Tulsa.
Life will never be the same since my baby girl is gone. I miss her so much. She was a cornerstone in my life.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. I went to h.s. with Leah and the thing I remember about her is that she was always smiling; a beautiful person, inside and out. My thoughts and prayers are with the James' and Leah's husband and girls.
Leah was a lovely and sweet lady. My Mom came to visit me and met her in May in Wal Mart of all places and I later told her that Leah was fighting cancer, my Mom remarked what a brave woman she was. To Burke, Eve and Betty, I am so sorry for your loss, please accept our condolences.
Burke, I am so sorry to hear about this. You indicated Leah had been in poor health. You and your girls are in our prayers.
I am so saddened by this passing, but am glad only Leah is free of pain and with her Savior in Heaven.
Leah was a inspiration and hero. Her strength, braveness and unwaivering faith were an example for us all. She was so blessed to have such a wonderful husband and kids, and they were blessed with her. Praying for your comfort and peace, Burke, Eve and Betty. See you soon *Hugs*.
