I have such wonderful memories of Mr. & Mrs. Leggett from my childhood. My grandparents, Bill & Leola Hammett would take me with then when they would visit so that I could play with their boxer, also named Suzy. They were such wonderful people.##imported-begin##SUZY HAMMETT PERMENTER##imported-end##

Charles, Your Mom was always good to us "Cove Kids" as were most of the moms when we were growing up. It is sad to see them leaving us. It was a pleasure and honor to have known her. Ronnie##imported-begin##Ronnie Coulter##imported-end##
