Some of which includes being a seminary teacher, young women leader and counselor in the stake relief society. Leutu had many talents. She enjoyed music and played the piano. Above all, she loved to sing. Even into her late eighties, her grandchildren recall how loud and proud she would sing. She consistently kept a journal, so we will be able to enjoy, for years to come, the experiences she wrote about. Many a morning, she could be found reading, catching up on the latest news. Leutu was a very loving mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She is survived by her 5 children, 13 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her son (Francis Te’o); granddaughter (Emeline Leutu Te’o), and son-in-law (William Purcell). She will be greatly missed by her family, friends and ward members.
