We have not felt heartache like this. The loss of Leighann who we shared so much with takes my breath away. She was part of our family spending evenings by the fire, birthdays together, celebrating holidays with family and neighbors. Always lending an ear to our thoughts and concerns. She was my go to for medical conversations and in many ways a confidant. Her smile, laughter and energy will be missed. In the Polish tradition, at holidays there is always an extra chair at the table for anyone wanting to join. That chair will always be there for Leigh. There will always be a spot in our lives for her. Always. Truly love you, our friendship, your open arms. You will forever be family. Rest In Peace dear friend. Mark, Bella and Luca, we are so sorry and we will always be there for you. Love you guys, Magda, Stewart, Ben, Victoria and Alan Duarte
