Leanne was an active member of her community often focusing on fund-raising for her favorite charities and organizations, as well as helping with benefits for those in need. Leanne loved working with the public at her family's cafe'. She enjoyed sharing her life and her time with her customers and considered many of them family. When Leanne was unable to continue working, she loved to stop in and have coffee with those that she cared about. Leanne passed away on June 20, 2014 at her home following a battle with cancer. She was an extremely strong woman with a bold, carefree attitude. She maintained this attitude and charisma throughout her battle and she never gave up.
