October 29, 2008 Leah Walsh, 29, is a special-education teacher at the School for Language and Communication Development in Glen Cove who has been married to William Walsh Jr. for about three years, the family and Nassau County police said yesterday.
Walsh, who disappeared Monday, had worked near Tampa, Fla., before she came to New York, said Howard Hirschel, her father.
She earned her master's degree from Molloy College in Rockville Centre last May.
Leah Walsh and her husband, who have no children, lived in Rockville Centre for a time, then recently moved to Marbourne Road in Bethpage, Hirschel said.
A neighbor from across the street said that the couple had lived there for about six months.
Leah Hirschel Walsh's My-Space page says she studied communications-sociology at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, graduating in 2006, then studied special education at Molloy.
"We're sitting on the edge of our chairs," said Peggy Walsh of East Northport, William Walsh's grandmother.

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. -- Marshall quarterback Mark Cann threw two touchdown passes and ran for another, and the Thundering Herd never trailed in their 37-23 win over Houston on Tuesday night.
Cann connected with Cody Slate on a 9-yard touchdown pass, and Craig Ratanamorn kicked all three of his field goals in the first half to put Marshall (4-4, 3-1 Conference USA) up 16-3 at halftime.
Tough Break
Patrick Edwards, the Houston WR who suffered a gruesome leg injury on Tuesday, is no joke as a player. The freshman entered the night 28th in FBS in terms of receiving yards per game at 86.3 YPG. That's second in FBS play among freshmen.

Emmanuel Spann caught a 5-yard scoring pass from Cann, and the quarterback scored on a 1-yard run in the third quarter. Darius Marshall, who led Marshall with 107 yards rushing, ran 22 yards for the Herd's final score in the fourth.
Nothing seemed to go right for the Cougars. They lost tackle Josh Bell to a torn Achilles tendon then later lost freshman wide receiver Patrick Edwards after he suffered a serious leg injury in the third quarter.
Edwards, running deep for a pass from Blake Joseph, ran out of the back of the end zone into a band equipment cart parked just beyond the out-of-bounds line. The impact, captured by ESPN's cameras, caused a compound fracture of Edwards' right leg according to the Houston Chronicle.
Cougars coach Kevin Sumlin told the Chronicle that while he had "his opinions" on the subject, he would offer no comment on such a dangerous situation. Houston athletics director Dave Maggard said he will pursue the subject with Marshall officials.
"It was duly noted and I think we'll save the conversation for another day," Maggard told the Chronicle. "I don't think there is any question that it is a problem. We all noticed it, and we want to find out why something like that would occur. It was a serious injury, no question about it."
Houston (4-4, 3-1) quarterback Case Keenum completed 22 of 41 passes for a season low of 317 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. However, the game was Keenum's school-record-setting ninth consecutive with at least 300 yards passing.
Bryce Beall led Houston with 68 yards rushing on 14 carries, and scored one touchdown.
