Leisa has been a very influential member of the House family since she married our youngest brother Brick. She inspired us when she studied for her Master's degree, and graduated. For the past seven years she has valiantly battled the evil which took her away from us. She was a warrior and we were again inspired by her courage. Brick's pain in losing her is felt by all his siblings and close friends. We know she is finally at peace in heaven. We will miss her forever.

Holding Leisa and Family to the Light. As a regional program specialist, Leisa has been my supervisor for the last three years. This has been a time of never before experienced unknowns, innovations and learning to work with our customers in new ways. She led us with trust. She trusted we would learn to adapt and grow to meet '20, '21 and '22 challenges. She was available to question and guide, but trusted I would complete my responsibilities to Region 2. Trust. Lead on!!! Thank you, Leisa.

Praying for Leisa’s friends and family. I know you all know how incredibly special she was. As I’ve thought a lot about her this week and everything that has been said about her in the VR world it is clear she has left a legacy and impact that will continue now that she is gone. Her impact will ripple throughout time. So many lives of customers she impacted. All of us who work in VR who learned and grew because of her. The difference she made will never end. We are so blessed to have known her and served with her.

I know your heart 💜 is heavy. Leisa had a sweet spirit and it was my pleasure to work with her at MRO. This world needs more people like Leisa in it.

Brick, Greg and I are so very sorry for your grief. Leisa is with our Lord and we are happy she is pain free. I can only imagine the loss you feel by her physical absence, though. I am praying for God’s comfort and peace for you. Much love! Rayna

Some of my best memories growing up came from walking across the pasture to hang out with you and Leslie at your house. And ride in those it stupid donkeys LOL. So many memories though they were a long ago same just like yesterday! I miss those days. You are always the kindest person with the sweetest smile no matter where are you went and who you talk to and you will be missed And remembered. You were definitely called home way too soon. My prayers go out to your family! I can’t even begin to imagine the heartbreak they are going through right now I pray the Lord will comfort them.

I’m so sorry to hear of Leisa’s passing. She was such a wonderful person, friend, coworker and boss. She was always available to talk to about anything. She had such a great laugh! She will be missed so much. I’m praying for Brick and the rest of her family and friends who will miss her so much.
