Sandpoint has lost a legend

| November 3, 2019 12:00 AM

Sandpoint has lost a legend. Many are unaware of the esteemed and influential Leata Judd, to their misfortune. She graced our community with humility, nobility and dignity. Lake Pend Oreille High School is particularly saddened by her passing. She shared her artistic talent with the art class students each and every day and contributed her clay pieces to the fund-raising endeavors of the school. Leata walked daily to the school, weather permitting, and up the staircase to participate in the art class. She befriended all and spoke kindly positively and benevolently of all. Leata contributed more than her artistic talent. She left a legacy of love, laughter and selflessness that no one can rival or up to which no one can measure. Leata’s absence leaves a hole in our hearts. We are grateful and enriched by your coming into our lives, Leata. We will miss you. Condolences to the family.
