Leslie received a scholarship from the Sisters of Loretto to attend St. Louis University. She paid this generous gift forward through service in her community.
Leslie was a consummate volunteer, often serving organizations in a leadership position. She served as a Docent at the Missouri Botanical Garden; was a member of the Webster Groves Women’s Garden Association, Thimble and Thread Quilt Guild, Sinawik Club, Women’s League of Holy Redeemer, and a Girl Scout Leader. Leslie always enjoyed gardening, quilting, cooking, holidays and exploring the world.
She was a strong, independent woman who taught us how to live by how she led her life. Her kindness and grace set her apart from most, and her dedication to family is her legacy.
