She will be missed by not just myself but everyone who knew her She was wonderful to be around and to talk to and had such a great spirit . May she rest in peace

I had the pleasure of working with Antoinette in the many roles she had in OLMS.

Thank you for the energy you brought to your work and to life. You made a difference and touched each of us in your special way.

May your family be comforted by the memories we hold of you and your contribution to our collective work.

In Condolence,

I would like to send my deepest sympathy to the family of Antoinette. I first met her attending a football function here in Georgia. We both had on our Niners jersey as we walked/ talked in the parking lot. She provided a pleasant conversation and she was one of kindest people I ever met. Rest on 🙏🏽

To the family, friends and colleagues,OLMS of Antionette Dempsey. I am still heartbroken over her sudden transition. WOW, we had become such great friends and shared a ZEST for LIFE. Very excited and pleased, I had the opportunity to met Barbara, her mom. Antionette will be greatly missed, but not forgotten. Sending condolences from my family to her family. Rest well my sister!

Just A Dream

My beautiful cousin, Leigh Antoinette Dempsey

You are the epitome of God´s grace and loving kindness. Because you lived your life so loving, kind, caring, considerate of others. You shared your gifts with us all, and I am so thankful to God for you.

In March of last year, when you shared with me the Dream that you had about your beloved mother, Barbara Dempsey and the two of you catching a bus to go to a venue to attend a choir conference. I thought it was all just a dream.

You continued to share that your beautiful mother was walking around in a purple choir robe with her afro glistening. And that she so proudly introduced you to everyone. You said that most of the people are gone now. And I thought it was all just a dream.

Then you shared that you awakened feeling so very happy knowing that your beloved mother was with her friends singing in the heavenly celestial choir! You stated, "I am earnestly praying for one thing, And I know God will allow it to manifest." It was all just so beautiful and once again, I thought it was all just a dream.

But now I know, this was also your dream that you were dreaming of the day that you would see your beloved mother in heaven. Rest in heavenly peace my beautiful cousin you will never be forgotten.

In Loving Memory,

Sheryl Hudson

Antoinette made working at OLMS a joy because of her unique talent for bringing out the best in all of us. No matter how much time passed or how many miles grew between us, our friendship remained strong -- and that's the legacy she leaves behind. Antoinette made a profound impact on all of us, and we will always remember her warmth, kindness, and love. --OLMS SFDO Stevenson St Alumni

My sincere condolences to Antonette family and friends. Antonette hired me 22 years ago at OLMS San Francisco Office. As a supervisor, she was always there for me, coaching, mentoring, and encouraging me to learn and sometimes pushing hard for me to be my best. I learned a lot from her and will have fond memories of her unique sense of humor,her words of wisdom but most of all her closeness to her mother and God. Rest in peace Ms. Leigh Antoinette Demsey and I know your mother welcomed you to eternity. - Bernadette Storniolo OLMS San Francisco

I am truly sadden; Antoinette treated me like a little sister; she was so easy to talk to and nice to me and you was a good listener. I remember first meeting her and she did not know I was a twin thought she was seeing going crazy trying to figure out how I beat hear back to the office when she just saw me on another floor in the building, we laughed when my sister walked in and it all clear she was not going crazy. You will be deeply missed a true friend. RIP my sister and friend. Lynette Shelton

I first met Antionette at one of the new investigator's training in Jacksonville many years ago. I asked her if she was a fellow student, she smiled at me and said I just made her day! I laughed! The Bible says our lives are like a mist that appears for a little while and then it is gone. Antoinette's passing is a reminder for us to be kind to one another while we are here. Her life was an example of making our lives count. She held many titles: District Director, Regional Director, Special Assistant, wife, sister, friend. But her most important title is Child of God. Sending condolences to family and friends whose lives have all been impacted by her light, spirit, and smile. May she rest in Our Lord's presence until we see her again.

My sincere condolences to Antoinette's family and friends. Antoinette will be dearly missed.

First I thank God for the years we spent together. Mom treated me and my family as her family. You were a true friend who loved deeply and someone I could trust. My heart is broken but your genuine love and memories will be with me until see meet in heaven. Mom's only child has gone home to be with her into eternity. 🙏🏽❤️😇

My sincere condolences to Antoinette's loved ones. She was so welcoming when I made the transition from SOL to OLMS and shared helpful insider tips with me about "the field." I so enjoyed listening to her talk. She had a certain lilt to her voice and her joie de vivre always came through. She will be missed Sharon Hanley

Antoinette will be missed by so many people. Our hearts are broken, and we pray for peace for all of her family and friends. I will miss her terribly. OLMS will not be the same...ever.--Brian Pifer

I have no words. I'm truly saddened by this news. Antoinette was a beautiful person inside and out.

I am not sure what to say after such a sudden loss. It is never a time when we are ready to say good-bye to someone so special. Antoinette was a rare breed, one of a kind, unforgettable spirit. Her smile, her laughter, and her big heart compares to no other. I was blessed to have called her a friend. I offer a hug from me to you to let you know that today and every day, that your family is in my heart, my thoughts, and my prayers. Please remember that a candle may go out, but the memory of its light remains. Your Friend forever-Michael Delaney

Antoinette, you were always such a joy to be around and a pleasure to work with. You will be greatly missed. Christa Henderson (CRLM)

Happy days don't last forever

That adage is true

Now that you have resigned

And we won't be working with you

Good times don't always last

Someone did say wisely

Now that you are leaving us

For another company

But there is one more proverb

That says friends are forever

And if that is true, then our ties

Will be broken never

Goodbye

It was a pleasure providing customer services to Antoinette, I offer my condolences. --OLMS IT Services, Naomi Vela

Antoinette, while we didn't have a constant connection, I'm so thankful for our heart-to-heart when you were last in New Orleans! I know you missed your Mom, so I pray she was the first to greet you and you were able to hug her tighter than ever. Your smile and love of life will always be remembered.

To her family, please know that she made an impact in this world and retain all of the good memories.

Sending healing vibes and prayers, Tara - OLMS New Orleans

I was sadden to hear of your passing. You were so kind to me and you were a good listener. I remember first meeting you in Jacksonville, Florida when you taught the CAP class in 2004. You will be deeply missed. OLMS has lost a true friend. Take your rest my friend.

My deepest condolences to Antoinette's family, friends and U.S. Department of Labor employees. Antoinette was so smart, sweet and beautiful!
