Notes |
- LeVonne was born on April 9, 1925 and went to be with the Lord on October 15, 2013. She was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota and had three brothers - Robert, Russell and Richie. Richie is the lone survivor at 91 years of age. He currently lives at Windsor Gardens in Anaheim. LeVonne's family moved to Long Beach, California in the early forties. She worked at Sears and also a small appliance store.
On October 5, 1944, she married Walter Haas in San Diego. Wally was in the Navy and one month later he shipped out to the South Pacific until November 1945. When he returned they set up residence in Long Beach.
After her husband Wally retired from the California Highway Patrol they traveled quite a bit - buying, repairing and selling antiques. She had a large collection of glass pitchers, plates and Hummel figurines. In 1980 Wally and LeVonne and two of their friends - who were antique dealers - went to England, Scotland and Ireland and bought a large container of antiques and sent them home. They fixed them up and sold them. They made many buying trips across the country from California to Maine.
LeVonne loved music and liked to watch old DVD's of musical comedies. She loved to play the piano. She has always been a caretaker and never failed to offer something to eat and drink to any visitor to her home. LeVonne enjoyed being with her family and fortunately they all live close and she was able to see them on all occasions. She was very active in her church and very strong in her faith.
LeVonne is survived by her husband of 69 years, Wally; her two children, Patricia M. Ramskill (husband - Stan) of Garden Grove and Paul James Haas (wife - Bunnie) of Anaheim. Paul is a retired Anaheim Police Sergeant. She is also survived by six grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild.
The family would like to thank the staff at Emeritus at Fairwood Manor in Anaheim for the wonderful loving care given to LeVonne for the past 2 1/2 years.
A viewing will be held Thursday, October 24, 2013 from 6pm - 8pm at Memory Garden Memorial Park, 455 W. Central, Brea, Ca 92821.
