I got to know Lesley and Jonathan when they moved to Asheville. Lesley and I became fast friends and spent many hours together, talking and walking. Lesley felt deeply and experienced life with enthusiam. I am sad to learn of her death and sad to learn that she lived right down the road from me and I did not know it. My heart is with her family.
There will always be a place in my heart for Lesley. I remember her among the flowers on her wedding day, and will think of her whenever I contemplate a beautiful garden or a soaring mountain.
The Moores are the most wonderful, loving family and our hearts go out to them for their devastating loss.
She was the ‘Fax Goddess’. Am sorry to have learned of her passing on so late. Soar high LC.
The passing years have not lessened the sadness. I will always remember and love you, LCMK.
Best wishes
