Leslie Hornyak Obituary
Known for her self-described trait of being "giftedly outspoken," Leslie had a unique way of connecting with others. Her sharp wit and unfiltered honesty were not just personality quirks-they were signs of affection. If she teased you or challenged you with a pointed question, it meant she cared. She remembered even the smallest details from conversations, always following up in ways that showed she was genuinely interested in your life. Leslie did everything she could to help those around her, whether it was a close friend or a complete stranger, and she never hesitated to offer support, advice, or a listening ear.
Leslie was the proud mother of two sons, Tommy and Danny. Her presence will be deeply missed by them and by all who knew her.
May her memory bring comfort to those who knew her and continue to inspire honest connection and heartfelt conversation.
