Rick, Laine and Tyler and families;

Rick and family;

On behalf of Chris and my family, and on behalf of Western Hospitality Singers, we offer our sincere condolences to you and and all of your family on the passing of Leslie. She was a wonderful example to all of us who met her. I well remember the baskets of cookies that she always sent to our chorus on show days to keep us sustained through the day preparations. She was a shining light to us all.

Sincerely,
Doug Gardner
Chapter President,
