In Memory of Lindsay
7/22/1986 – 11/01/2009
Go Forward into the night
Bravely
Boldly
Beautifully
Don’t look back
you’ll only see us waving and crying.
Remember us as we remember you
Brave
Bold
Beautiful
Gone into the night
Like the wind passing by us in a storm.
Lindsay started working for us just about a year ago…
most of her duties were in the warehouse, restocking and getting orders ready to go
she made us smile & laugh all the time with her sharp humor & inappropriate jokes. We all feel blessed to have had the time with her we did and are deeply saddened by her sudden passing. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to her family & friends.

I’m always gonna remember her in her Halloween costume, at this point, which I think she’d appreciate.

Me too and am so glad I got these shots of her… she was so spectacular, in & out of costume. I am also grateful that I said goodbye and thanked her as she left the building yesterday afternoon. We don’t always get that chance.

Yes, I will remember her in that outfit, and how happy she was the last time I saw her. I will also remember the little drawings she put on invoices with funny/cute/interesting e-mails, and how she would dance around to Beats Antique and Pomplamoose while pulling orders. Farewell, dear woman.

A sudden death like this is so jarring, I know.
My deep sympathies as this grief unfolds.

So much of life is about the little interactions between us. We think about these things when someone is gone. We feel a bit awkward telling an aquaintance or even a friend that we appreciate them. And then there comes a time when we wish we had. Maybe today, in honor of your friend and coworker, everybody who reads this journal should tell someone in their life that you appreciate them. I dont know any of you, but I can relate to what you are going through. I’m sorry.

i didn’t know her personally, but i know you all through your amazing company, & that she worked with you is enough to convince me that she was a very special person. my sympathies to all her friends & family

I taught Lindsay how to operate a Steam Locomotive when she was only 11 years old. She and her father were at our club in Riverside, California many times. She was an Amazing young Lady. I’m not sure how this World is going to get by without her. I know many peoples’ hearts are broken, right now.
God Bless Lindsay A. Leonard !

I think Laurel was right on when she described Lindsay as fierce. Fierce in that her humor was sharp, her personality bright, her energy clear and strong. She really was an awesome, energetic individual.

I had only met Lindsay a couple of brief times. I knew her mostly as the perky voice on her father’s answering machine, announcing that the Sky God was not available. But I know of her father’s intense pride and love for her. He spoke of her often, keeping us updated on her new accomplishments. I know she will be intensely missed. Daughter of the Sky God – she was like a bright meteor flashing bright and brief across the sky. Life is precious. Relish it.

I knew Lindsay tangentially from college. She hung out with some of my friends, and that is how I got to know her. You had to admire her mouth. I was out of the country when the news came, and I am sorry that I was not there to share in the mourning. But I wish I could have spent the last year getting to know her better, rather than in my room absorbed in classes. I must admit, I was not expecting to see a memorial to Lindsay outside of social networks or personal sites. An internet wake is a lonely one. Seeing you guys care…makes it better. For the Duke of Lindzor.
