 Leah worked and lived in the Casper community all her life. She graduated from NCHS and She started her journey in life working at the Alcova Marina when she was in her teens. She Worked for Manx oil and Torque Process and Control for a majority of her career. 

 Leah was a beautiful soul, with a true love for life she had a softness and a kind casual easy going smile for everyone. Those that knew her truly loved her. She lived for the day and always in the service of others. She gave freely and never wanted for anything. She was complex yet lived a simple and minimalist life. She was never one to have anyone fuss over her. She never cared for the flashy things and truly enjoyed living and loving in the present. Leah was a true dog lover and somehow managed to attract the craziest collection of misfit pups. Her dogs were her a big part of her life. She knew many people yet had a small tight circle of friends, a private person who lived life on her own terms. She leaves behind a void in our hearts that is a testament to how she lived her life and the impact she had on those around her .
