After the passing of her beloved husband George Leighton Sr, she worked outside the home for Bailey Farm Dairy and The Good Samaritan Home before enjoying a long retirement. She was beloved by her family and friends. Beulah was a kind hearted and fun loving woman for whom one never knew what comedy would be uttered from her lips. She will be dearly missed.
