Dick and I went to Florida and spent some time with LeAnne and Patti in 2014. After visiting the site where my mother's boatyard had been, we went to a wonderful restaurant on the bay and shared old memories for several hours. LeAnne was her usual gregarious self and regaled us with numerous tales and questions about what was going on in our lives. It was a very enjoyable evening. I will always remember her laughter.

LeAnne passed away peacefully on September 28, 2016 in Hope House, Ft Myers, Florida after a 3 ½ year battle with Breast Cancer. Family members were at her side as she passed. LeAnne was born in Cleveland , Ohio on September 22, 1943 to Marion A. and Wilfred W. Tefft. She grew up in Toledo, Ohio and graduated with honors in 1961 from Edward Drummond Libbey High School. Following high school she attended the College of Wooster in Wooster, Ohio.
LeAnne was married and raised two sons, John and Mark, in Perrysburg and later in Rossford, Ohio while working in various management positions. She moved to Glendale, Arizona in 1984, where she worked in the healthcare and medical insurance fields, retiring in 2007 from United Health Care after a successful career managing a loss recovery group. She later moved to Temecula, California to be close to family and to help raise her beloved granddaughters. In 2013 she moved to Cape Coral, Florida to be with her sister.
LeAnne loved her family and actively explored family genealogy. She also enjoyed reading, travel, Bridge, creative projects and miniatures, animals- especially dogs-and nature. She was an ACBL Life master (Gold?) and was actively involved with Bridge in the Toledo and Phoenix areas for many years. She loved playing and teaching Contract Bridge.

She will be remembered by those who knew her as a very sweet and friendly person with a disarming smile and a readiness to listen and help in any way possible.
