Anna Jantje LEPPARD (née Bruinsma)
Anna Jantje Leppard (née Bruinsma) passed away on February 7, 2026, at the age of 80. She was predeceased by her parents, Cornelis and Grietje Bruinsma. Her beloved husband Robert Leppard, who predeceased her on December 13, 2024, and her dear best friend Norma, whose friendship brought her so much joy, have also passed away. Anna was a devoted and loving mother to her three daughters, Lori (Gord), Kim (predeceased by Sandy), and Lindy (Tim), and a proud and cherished grandmother to Kyle, Jessica (Pierce), Greg (Paige), David, and Katelyn, as well as a great-grandmother to Aaron. Her family was the centre of her world, and her quiet strength, steady presence will be deeply missed. She is also lovingly remembered by her brothers and sisters, Janny (Joe) Verkuyl, Bill (Jackie) Bruinsma, Homer Bruinsma, Shirley Banks, and Larry Bruinsma. Anna had a deep love for her garden and her pets, including her loyal dog Dudley, who was never far from her side. Anna will be remembered for her kindness and the quiet way she cared for those around her. Her legacy lives on in the family she nurtured, the love she gave, and the many memories held close by those who knew her. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that an act of kindness be done in Anna's honour. Online tributes may be made at www.hulseandenglish.com.
