Today I learned of the passing of a co-worker from Iowa Beef Steak House. My heart hurts for LeAnns family, as death is a hard loss. It is a loss of not only what is now, but what your family will miss out on in the future. Keep in mind your mom, wife, sisters memory will live within each of you. Hang on to the good stuff, and I hope it brings peace to your hearts. I will remember her smiles, visiting about the past, and the way she would use her glasses to keep her hair up. :) Hugs to you all!

I am very sorry for the loss of LeAnn. I worked with her for a lot of years at the Steakhouse. I babysat her girls and when I had a child of my own, LeAnn, her girls and Dan babysat him. I owe LeAnn a lot; practically helping me raise Anthony! I will always keep great memories of her. Im happy for her that she is in a better place.

Bubbly, friendly and cheerful was our pal, LeAnn. My wife and I always enjoyed her delightful conversations when we dined at the Iowa Beef Steak House. Our condolences to her family, friends and co-workers.

I am so sorry for your loss I worked at the steakhouse for many years with LeAnn and babysat the girls when they were younger. She was really a wonderful person always laughing and smiling. I have some great memories of her. My thoughts are with your family.
