Our family rented from Leaders for two years in the 60's, and they were wonderful people. They always gave Christmas gifts to the kids, and let them eat strawberries from the garden. George is still known as the "Gum Man", and he always gave us cheese for Christmas. When winter came, and we couldn't get out of the driveway, Larry drove his snowmobile up to us and brought milk for the kids. We will miss her. Carol Fisher and Family

How happy I am for my wonderful visit with Aunt Veronica the last time I was back in Wisconsin. She always knew that if I were back home, my visit with her was up there on my list. What a blessing she was and is to us all. Thanks for the memories Aunt Veronica.
