She also leaves her grandchildren, Sean Lehe, Joe Severs, Laura and Chris Love, Amanda and Max Eggert, and Michael and Consuelo Lehe. She will be remembered fondly for her loving heart, enthusiasm for learning and joy of life. She will be missed. A celebration of her life will take place on August 30 at 11am at Trinity Cathedral, 2620 Capitol Ave. A reception will immediately follow in the Church Hall.
