Bill , Leslie was very special, she found my soul dog for me. She not only found Sedona's breeder, she got all of CCL to help me buy her. Leslie took me out to see the puppies Super Bowl. The breeder was in on the whole thing about the price. I will always be grateful, she will always be in my thoughts. Sending Love & Healing to you, Bill.,

My heartfelt sympathy to you Bill and to her family.  I loved her and was grateful she was not only my friend but my cocker spaniel mentor. I am lucky and honored to have been in her life and cherish our times together with our cocker spaniels.

Such a kind, generous, loving person.  We met through the love of cocker spaniels and Leslie's passion for these sweet animals taught me so much about the breed.  She was amazing in her courage to face cancer on her terms - an inspiration to keep going (and going and going on foot and bike).  Prayers for comfort for Bill and all who loved her so much.   


Col. 1:20 speaks of God's sacrifice when He gave Jesus to us so that one day we would live eternally with Him. I look forward to seeing Leslie one day and I know she is having a wonderful reunion with loved ones who have gone before. I loved her and pray for comfort and peace for you Bill and also her friends and loved ones.

My deepest condolence. God says at 2Kings 20:5. "I have heard your prayer. I have seen your tears. Here I am healing you". Please accept his comfort.
