Leann C. Weinstein
Leann C. Weinstein of
El Segundo, California passed
away peacefully in Kingsland
Texas on December 24th 2019
while visiting family over the
holidays. Leann was born on
January 17th 1976, in Torrance
California and was raised in El
Segundo, California. She attended
El Segundo High School and was
a member of the Flag Team and
Choir; Leann loved to sing and
enjoyed all types of music. After graduating

California State Long Beach and graduated
with a Liberal Arts degree.
Leann was and continued to be engaged
with International Order of the Rainbow for
Girls and served as a Grand Officer for the
El Segundo Assembly. She was always
traveling to support and attend various events
and milestones for her Rainbow sisters.
Leann loved adventures and visited many
National Parks collecting patches along
the way. She loved to cook and bake
and could make the most amazing meal
with random items found in the pantry and
fridge. She was always on an adventure
whether hiking, paddle boarding, biking
or visiting family she met when she was
a young child. During her travels she
would find a perfect item
for someone and send it their
way, no waiting for Christmas
or a birthday it was more fun
to give unexpectedly.
She worked in retail for 20+
years and could charm a smile
out of each shopper and make
their day or find the perfect item
they were looking to purchase.
She was an avid collector of fine
Wine, glasses, plates, otters and
in general things that gave her joy.
Leann’s greatest gift was being present
when family or friends needed support or
assistance, she was available; she had a
great love and appreciation of her family
and friends.
She is survived by her mother Diane
Strong, Sister Sandy Weinstein, father John
Weinstein and Grandfather C. Lewis Kassiris.
