Even though I knew the moment was coming, when my mom told me you passed away I felt as though I had been hit by a truck. I can't believe that day was over two years ago already because I still miss you all the time. I think of you constantly and still wish that I could share moments and information with you the way I once did. You are forever in my heart and that will never change no matter how much time passes.
I love you just as much as ever!
August 15, 2010
I think of you more often on the day you were born - March 17th - but can't help thinking of you today as well. I think of you, actually, every day. You lit up the world and it was a more beautiful place with you in it. I miss you.

I knew you for a long time and I think of you still so often. You were a beautiful, loving, intelligent, playful and dynamic young woman who was a wonderful listener. At one time I felt you were the only person who understood me. I wish we had stayed in closer touch. But I thank God I knew you and had you as a friend. I cherish my memories of you.

Just yesterday someone said something that reminded me of you - and the memories came flooding back. God must've had a good reason to take you from us - sometimes it's just so hard to accept though. I'm praying for you Lesley, and hope you're watching over all of us.

It has been a few weeks since I broke down in tears from thinking about you but I do still think of you everyday. You were an amazing woman and I wish so badly that you could still be here with all of us who love you. I knew that this day would come eventually but I never thought it would have been so soon, even though we are quickly approaching the one year anniversary it still feels like just yesterday that I heard the terrible news that you passed away.
I hope that you have been watching over all of us because you would be so proud of the things being accomplished by those you left behind...graduation, college acceptance, internships, blood drives, you name it...
I love you so much and miss you terribly today, yesterday, tomorrow, and forever.

It seems that every day something happens or someone says something and you come to mind, just like that you "pop" into my thoughts. Occasionally I can merely think of a good memory, grin/smile, and move on with whatever I was doing but this is not normally the case. Most of the time when I think of you I struggle not to gather tears in my eyes. During these occurrences it doesn't matter if I'm thinking about the best memories I have of you or not I still can't hold back the tears and sadness. I search for the strength to move on past this tragedy but it is harder than I could have ever imagined and I don't really know how or where to even begin in doing so...I need you to somehow tell me how, tell me that you're ok up in heaven, tell me that you are having an amazing time watching all of us down here, I need to know that you aren't sad that you're gone, and I want to make sure that you're able to see all of your loved ones growing and aging all the while experiencing new and amazing things. It is because of these uncertainties that I can't stop thinking about you, there are just too many unknowns that I feel it paralyze me at times. I wish I had received the chance to actually say goodbye to you because I love you, since I can't actually do that this will have to do instead...
Lesley I love you for everything you have done for me and everyone else you had the chance to impact. You were a truly magnificent person and we were all so lucky to know and spend time with you. I miss you so much that it is actually painful at times and I know that I am not alone with this pain because we all share it. I love you so much and that will never change!!!
I really hope you are ok up there in heaven and that you have no regrets about the life that you lived. Don't worry about leaving us so soon, we understand that you tried to hang on for as long as you could and that it was just too much at the very end. Finally, I hope that at the end you were at peace within, no longer fighting but instead just relaxing and looking back at all the wonderful things you had done and seen, reminiscing the good times.
I MISS YOU
I LOVE YOU
an eternal friend

I doubt you can see this but I want to write it anyway...
I think about you everyday and sometimes just hearing the name "Lesley" brings tears to my eyes. Whenever I allow myself to really focus on you I can spend hours at a time just crying about how unfair it is that you are gone and that you won't be coming back. Even with months having past I still find myself wanting to ask my parents every time we talk how you are doing and how your numbers are. I hate that this had to happen to you because you didn't deserve it, no one deserves what you went through, especially at the end.
No matter how much more time passes I promise that I will NEVER stop thinking about you. You had an impact on my life and that I can never forget for I am so grateful it is true.
I love you Lesley!

My son, John, who Lesley tutored for the ACT, just told me of Lesley's passing. She was such an inspiration to me as she continued to help children while ill and always a smile on her face. Unless you knew or asked, you would not have known she was so ill. Our family will always remember her for not only how she helped our son but her strength and her fight to live. Lesley, you know you were on the top of my prayer list but now I will pray for your husband and girls.

I cried when I heard the news a few days ago because Lesley was such an amazing and uplifting woman. During her life, that was ended far too early, Lesley accomplished so many things, the greatest of which was raising two gorgeous, well-mannered and brilliant daughters. I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that Lesley will be missed by her family and friends every minute of every day...never forgotten and irreplaceable!
