In memory of Leighton Hubbell:

On November 19, 2022, we unexpectedly lost Leighton to a previously undiagnosed heart condition. He was in great health and left this world knowing many friends adored & admired him.

Leighton leaves behind wife Mary, daughters Mason and Caden, his extended family and many, many friends and colleagues.

Leighton was one of the kindest, most compassionate people you’d ever hope to meet. He was passionate about graphic design and creating beauty in the world. Leighton adored his family and shared stories about them with everyone he met.

Leighton was deeply involved in the community; he always had a charity ride or another project in the works. While clocking many miles on behalf of JDRF, he coached, motivated and raised thousands of dollars in memory of his wife’s cousin Rose. He also taught at Chapman University, a great outlet for a person who loved to share his knowledge with others.

For those folks lucky enough to work with Leighton at Smith & Noble, they got to work with an extremely talented graphic designer who cared so much about his work, the company, and the people he worked with. Leighton always was first to greet a newcomer. He cracked jokes when the stress levels got high at deadline time – and was always happy to explain something or show someone how to do a task.

We will miss him terribly.

Our goal is to raise $25,000 to help Mason and Caden complete their educations and achieve their goals. Nothing would make Leighton happier than to know his beautiful daughters are able to finish college and relieve some of the financial pressures on Mary.

Please give if you can. And please leave your favorite Leighton memory below!

On behalf of Mary, Mason and Caden, thank you.

Services will be held on Saturday, January 7th at 10:00 am. Location is the Richfield Community Church at 5320 Richfield Road, Yorba Linda California.
