Leota's friendly demeanor was not limited to her household; it extended into the community where she leaves behind many friends who were touched by her generous spirit. She had a passion for shopping, a penchant for taking scenic road trips that showcased her adventurous spirit, and an immense love for her dog, Bear, who was her loyal companion.
