Announcement of Leita's Death •
It is with a mixture of sadness and joy that we want to tell all of our Skating Family and Friends;
Our mother, Leita Couey, has gone to be with our Heavenly Father. We are saddened that we will no longer get to see her smiling face but we are happy to know that she is with our dad. She was an amazing lady that will be missed by everyone that knew her. (written by Leita's son, Jeff Couey)
