She also served as a volunteer with the American Red Cross, acting as nurse's aide for numerous bloodmobile drives.
Leona's husband passed away in December 1981. Following his death she remained at the home they had spent their entire married life in, but eventually moved to a retirement home in Tunkhannock PA where she spent her remaining years. She died at the age of 92. She is survived by her son Jim and daughter-in-law Barbara, grandchildren Denise and Thomas Gibbs, and three great-grandchildren, Brenda, Neil, and Holly Gibbs.
