She loved being a mom. She helped raise three generations. First when her mom died, she helped raise her brothers and sisters, then she raised her own children, and when her son died, she helped raise his children.

Leota loved having a booth at the flea market where she met people who became friends then family. She was ready to go home to be with her heavenly family.
