RICHMOND - Leslie Eugene McIntire went to be with the Lord on August 6, 2012. Leslie was preceded in death by his wife, Mary Hillhouse McIntire; his brothers, Kenneth and A.C. McIntire; his sisters, Lorene and Irene Spurgeon; and parents, Lydia and Allen Williams.
Leslie was born in Yale, Oklahoma on October 3, 1920. He served in the United States Army during WWII in the Pacific Theater. Following the War, Leslie (known as Dutch to family and close friends) and Mary settled in Perkins, Oklahoma.

From 1970 to 1979 Leslie worked in various Texas locations until he retired in 1978 at the age of 58. Leslie & Mary retired to Lolita, Texas where he remained after her death until 1999 when he moved to Richmond, Texas. During the time they lived in Lolita, Leslie and Mary were active in First Assembly of God Church of Edna pastored by Rev. David Murff and his wife Peggy.
