Leslie K.
Leslie K. French, age 55, passed away unexpectedly on Friday, April 8, 2016, in The Toledo Hospital. She was born December 14, 1960, to William and Janet Stewart. She graduated from Ottawa Hills High School and Miami University of Oxford, OH. Leslie was a compassionate, warm, loving person. She had an enormous heart and would help anyone in need. She enjoyed the outdoors, gardening and reading, but she truly loved nothing more than her family. We will miss her deeply. We know that she is at peace.
Leslie is survived by her sons, James (Megan) French and Christopher French; mother, Janet Stewart; sister, Linda (Phillip) Dionyssiou; brother, William (Gail) Stewart; grandsons, Brady, Owenn and Elias; and numerous other family and friends. She was preceded in death by her father and grandparents.
