when linuxcaffe was just opening, Leah and Joseph picked up the sysadmin 
torch from Robert Brockway, and the two of them spent weeks of late 
nights making the impossible happen. Leah just would not quit and would 
not be daunted by the fact that something had never been done. They tore 
through technical challenges like pit-bulls, sometimes working till the 
sun came up, and in exchange for pizza, beer and love. She was a genius 
iconoclast; smart, sexy and sarcastic. I will never forget her and 
dealing with this loss is going to take me a while.
