Hera Tzortzopoulou Leighton Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Hera Tzortzopoulou Leighton of Minneapolis, Minnesota, who passed away on September 21, 2025, leaving to mourn family and friends. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Hera Tzortzopoulou Leighton to pay them a last tribute.
As we bid Hera farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Hera is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
She was loved and cherished by many people including: her parents, Charalambos Tzortzopoulos and Josephine Karger; her husband Dr. Lauren G. Leighton; her sons, Denys Leighton and Jamie Leighton; and her daughter-in-law Sudeshna Mazumdar-Leighton.
Memorials preferred to benefit Alzheimer's research and animal shelters.
