Patricia Ann Leefers of Marion died November 22, 2008 following an extended illness. She was survived by her daughter Melissa and granddaughter Ellie. She was 59.
Patty Leefers was a friend of Stu Lehr at Washington High. I used to visit them both in their home-room between classes. I have a fading Polaroid photo of Patty at her desk, with Stu and me pretending to read books, trying to amuse her. Patty had a sly sense of humor. Maybe that's why I went to a party I knew she was going to be at,way back in 1965. Sure wish I had known her better. Sure wish she wasn't gone.
