A native of Marlborough, MA, she was the widow of Bruce Bingerman, Sr. whom she was married to for 72 years, he was the love of her life. She worked briefly in the textile/plastic industry and then was a loving homemaker to her 7 children. Leona was of the catholic faith, she had a big family and kept them close by hosting family reunions on the farm on a regular basis. She loved to play cards, especially Pinochle with Bruce. She was very gifted at making beautiful ceramics such as vases, dishes, picture frames, etc. that she would hand paint.

To know Leona is to know how laid back and easy going she was. She was a very sweet person who opened her home to anyone who needed one. All were welcomed to her.
