So many amazing memories of Leslie over the years. Thinking of them brings a smile to my face. She will always have a place in so many hearts. I know she is looking down and watching over all of us.

I beleive this candle represents the light Leslie shared in so many lives. I worked with Leslie and she was always doing something for someone else. A very sad time! May God Bless you and comfort you. I am so sorry for your loss.

Leslie and I were in high school together many years ago. I will always remember her as a beautiful, high energy, happy person who was never without a contagious smile. I smile now thinking about her at that time. She touched many lives and made the world a better place.

If it wasn't for Leslie's caring personality and thoughtfulness, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet her a few years ago. She came to New York for her aunt's funeral, then for her uncle's funeral a year later (my grandparents, Amelia and Odysseus Scholomiti). I liked her right away because she was so vibrant, smart, and funny. Even though I only spent part of the day with her, she left an impression on me and lifted our family's spirits.
The news of her passing is so sudden and sad - my thoughts are with her family and friends.

Leslie and I met through our husbands love of classic cars and it was a pleasure and a joy to have known her and to call her my friend. She was a great person and a great friend that will be missed. My sympathies to Mark, Ben, Eric, Alex, her new daughters and her lovely granddaughter. Leslie inspired me to be a better mom and to enjoy life. The family is in my prayers and I regret not being able to be there in person. Love to all of her family and friends.

Leslie and I attended high school together and were on the reunion planning team with 17 others. She is a gift. We had just exchanged email about an upcoming social gathering and Leslie said she couldn't make it but to have fun! She is so proud of her family and it was an honor to be her friend. I pray that Leslie's family can endure the pain and embrace Leslie's new home in Heaven. My mom went to Heaven in 2006 and still sends me messages. I believe Leslie will do the same.

Our sympathies to all of Leslie's men - Mark, Ben, Eric and Alex, her new daughter-in-laws Megan and Sasha and granddaughter Sophie. The world is a sadder place without Leslie. I will always remember her booming laughter, her welcoming spirit, a loving mother hen taking care of her brood and in recent years so welcoming of extending her family. The last times I saw her were all very happy family times and we were blessed to be included in these events. Love to you all.
