To the Mitnick family. I just thought of you all and decided to look you up. Immediately I found Luke(Luckie to me) and then saw this. I am Rose or Rosie McAndrew and babysat you all for many years in Hamden Ct. I absolutely loved you all! I used to wake you up after your mom and dad left for the evening so I could play with you. I babysat you everyday and Saturday evenings for so many years! I see your mom and dad are still with you. Please tell them hello. I think of you all often with delight. I ended up married and stayed in Cincinnati. We have 5 kids of our own all married with kids except one. Big family. I´m sorry to hear Leslie died. Was she sick? Best wishes to you all. I pray you all are healthy and loving your lives and each other. I really did love you all! God bless you in all you do and give you peace in this time of sadness. [email protected] if you´d like to respond.

My condolences. I used to enjoy seeing Leslie at her work but I then moved to another location. So I just found out she passed. She was a nice person who brought joy when I saw her. I'm so sorry about her loss and hope that she is at peace. Blessings to her family.

A bright light has been extinguished, now a shining star up above. My sympathy to Leslie's family and friends. She was always so full of life, fun and a little whimsy. I will miss your beautiful pictures on Facebook. It was a pleasure and honor to know you for all these years. You are in my prayers.
With great sadness,

Dearest Leslie, rest in eternal peace! No more pain or sorrow will you see!
I know we did not get to visit much, over the years, due to being many miles apart. We did, however, have many conversations! I shall miss you calling and saying Mama! We would laugh and cry together! I pray Alicia and Becca, in time, will find comfort, in knowing, you are at peace! May Renee and Luke also find comfort! I pray they all surround themselves with love for each other!
God speed and bless your soul!

Love,
"Mama"
