I just heard about Leslie passing. She was a kind, caring, strong woman. She was one of the strongest women I have ever known. She will always hold a special place in my heart, as will her parents. If we could all be so lucky to have such wonderful parents. Leslie put up a long, hard fight- she finally is at peace. She has earned her peace. Enjoy your new life Leslie- you certainly earned it!

I'm so sad to see this news. My husband and I were in Leslie's high school class. She was such a sweet person that I always enjoyed spending time with. We're very sorry for your loss but heartened to hear of her strong faith that carried her through and will also comfort the loved ones left behind. Until we meet again...
