It is difficult to explain Leigh's life story in a summary she was just an amazing person (my baby sister)and I actually learned more from her than she ever learned from me, there is a four year difference between us and she was my only sibling and my very best friend. She was very intelligent and she knew what she wanted in life and always went after it never waiting on it to come to her. She meet and fell in love with her husband, Carl James Bowlin, when she was 12 years old and they were married when she was 18 years old. She was 39 years old when she passed away (not near long enough to be here). She has four wonderful children 3 boys and 1 daughter. Her oldest son CJ 18, Luke 14, Seth 8, and Emma 6. Once she had those children she dedicated her whole life to them and was the best mom I have ever known. She stayed active in all of their sporting events since they were about 6 or 8 years old she had them all active in some type of sport. Not only did she take her kids to these sporting events, but she was also very active with each and every one of them. In Jr. High school when her oldest son played football she became the president of the parents and organized all of the parents and made schedules for each of them as to what their duties would be. Then when her oldest son went to high school and her 2nd son Luke went off to middle school she became the president of the parents in both Jr. high and high school. In the mean time her younger son Seth was involved with little league football and she delegated responsibilities for all the parents for that. In the mean time she, her husband, and our mom owned a grocery business and she worked 6 to 7 days a week. Her daughter Emma went to work with her while the other children were in school. She loved her family and she showed that every day of her life. If you ever had an opportunity to meet Leigh, you had to have been blessed. Her walk with God was so real and so strong you knew that just by meeting her. So if you had that opportunity to have meet her you had to have been blessed. Don't get me wrong now she was a fighter and she always let you know exactly where she stood on all issues and she expressed it to everyone. You never had to wonder what she thought of you because she would definitely let you know. The funny thing was she was always right about everything she ever said, if she saw you messing up in your life (for instance)she let you know that you were and how, but yet she never judged anyone and loved all of us unconditionally. Words cannot express what she meant to me (her big sis) being that we were all we had growing up we were much more than sisters she was my comfort, my best friend my everything and now that she is gone a part of me will be gone forever too.
