To know Leslie was to know that she was very straightforward and kind hearted. She would certainly tell you the truth whether you would like to hear it or not, but would also show support any time it was needed. To keep her mind occupied and bring joy to her days, Leslie found comfort in arts & crafts. She would create handmade “pop-up” birthday cards for family and friends. She would meticulously draw, color, cut, and paste each piece, adding a heartfelt message to make the card special.

One of Leslie’s most creative and meaningful works of art was a lifelike display depicting her dialysis treatment. It became her pride and joy. The piece was so special that DaVita proudly placed her artwork on display for others to enjoy
