“My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Leah Chase. Mrs. Chase was much more than an iconic chef who played a role in giving our local cuisine recognition worldwide. She was a wife, a mother, a leader in the civil rights movement and a great supporter of numerous charities and the arts locally. Mrs. Chase leaves behind a great legacy as an important figure in our city’s history.”
