"Beautiful insider and out. My mother always wanted us to see all the beauty in the world and to never be ashamed of who we are. She never tried to be something she wasn't. Love, affection, and strength. That's who Leanne Gayle Foster was and will always be to be. -Billie Foster, firstborn daughter of Leanne.

"My mother was a special person; she had a way about her to make you feel welcomed and loved. Like she has known you for years, even if you just met her. She loved to have a great time and negative vibes were not a part of her soul. I will always remember and cherish the fact that she could find a positive in any negative situation. My mother was the strongest bravest woman I have ever known. God gives his hardest battles to his strongest warriors. So, I know now he has a plan at the right hand of God." -Kevin Sheridan, son of Leanne.

"I was the tag a long, the surprise, my mother's little side kick wherever she was I wasn't too far away. In my eyes my mother was perfect, perfect for me at least. I will remember my mother for so many things as everything I do seems to remind me of her. My greatest of memories of my mother will be the one you can't put a price tag on. The unconditional love! We may have not had much materialistic things, but we had always had each other no matter what life through our way. The priceless moments I will cherish forever, and I wouldn't change it for all the money in the world if I had it all to do over again. Momma, I will miss you every day but knowing that you no longer are suffering in this broken world gives me a calming peace. I no that this is not goodbye forever, and that I will someday see you again. Heaven has gained a beautiful angel, please watch over us momma and hug grandma and grandpa so tight. -Your babygirl, Cassy Irwin.

A family service to honor Leanne will take place in Pennslyvania at a later date.
