In Memory Of
Bernadine "Bea" Leafdale
1929 - 2020

Bernadine “Bea” Leafdale died peacefully at home on June 18, 2020 with her family by her side. Bea was born at home in Tensleep, Wyoming on August 13, 1929, the youngest of nine children born to Bert and Elizabeth Simpson. Her mother died when she was 14 months old and her father died when she was only fourteen. She was raised by brothers and sisters during the Depression.

Some of her fondest memories were with her father while living in Tensleep; graduating from high school in Thermopolis, Wyoming; and serving the Lord through her consummate volunteer work. She was always willing to help someone in need.

She married Neal Leafdale in 1946. They celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary shortly before he died in 2006. They had three children, Linda (Ron Johnston), Holly (Jerry Terry) and Rod Leafdale, six grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. They enjoyed traveling and played golf everywhere they went.

A memorial service will be held at 11:00 am, Thursday, August 13, 2020 at Oregon Trail State Veterans Cemetery.
