She began working as a secretary in the insurance industry while still at Lee High School, graduating in 1939. In 1942 she began working for the US Army Corps of Engineers and, when they started an office in Brazil to build airstrips, she joined her sister Hester and her husband, James Campbell, who were already working for the Corps of Engineers in Recife, Brazil. Leona worked there for eight months and in Rio de Janeiro for another eight months. Then she was so homesick that she returned home to work for the Corps of Engineers in Jacksonville until she and Dewey eloped to Georgia and were married on August 3, 1947.
