She was born near Brunnerville, Pa., and lived her entire life in the Hammer Creek Church District. Her death came very unexpectedly. On Tuesday evening, June 1, she retired in her usual health and passed away during the night apparently without awaking from her sleep.

Sister Leaman was a faithful member of the Mennonite Church for many years and will be greatly missed in the Lititz congregation where she was a regular attendant. The funeral service was held from the Spacht Funeral Home in charge of Bishop Christian K. Lehman, a son-in-law. Public services were conducted at the Lititz Mennonite Church. Bro. Wilmer Eby opened the service and Bishop Amos Horst preached the sermon. Text, Ps. 73:24. Burial in the Hess Cemetery. Her cheerful and kindly disposition made for her many friends who miss her greatly."
