Peacefully, surrounded by loving family at Bluewater Health on Tuesday, September 21, 2021, Julie Leystra went to be with her Lord and Saviour at the age of 83. Beloved wife of the late Jack Leystra (2007). Loving mother of Peggy Link (Ken), Teresa Mills (Rick), Cheryl Leystra-Lantz (Jeff) and Michael Leystra (Rozanne). Cherished grandmother of Adam (Jessica), Leigha (Nick), Amy (Tim), Kyle (Amanda), Matt (Christina), Candice (Adrian), Katie (Chase), Julianna (Nate), Lisa (Santi), and Ian (Heather), and treasured great-grandmother of 15. Dear sister of Irene McRae (Arnie), Marilyn Hicks (Keith), and Hank Reyneker (Karen). Predeceased by her parents Cornelius and Margaret Reyneker.
Family was important to Mom and she doted on her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Mom loved card games, rummy cube, feeding the birds, along with travelling. While Dad was still trucking, Mom was able to join him and enjoyed different adventures and sights with him. She will be deeply missed by all those whose lives she touched.
A private family graveside service was held at Irwin Cemetery. A memorial service will be held at Smith Funeral Home, 1576 London Line, Sarnia, on Saturday, September 25, 2021, at 2:30 p.m., with a reception to follow.
