I did not know Leroy but my husband and I lived in Harrisburg before moving to Owasso, Ok and my son lives in Broken Arrow. I was born Trumann and thought I would make a connection.My family still lives in Trumann. I noticed that two siblings live in Oklahoma. I live in Owasso which is just 15 minutes from BA.Just wanted to send my thoughts & prayers to the family. If you ever lived in Trumann/Harrisburg, then you are considered family to me.Terry and Trisha Muse1605 N. CedarOwasso, Ok 74055918-272-5873
