Dear Larry, Adam, and Ethan,

I am so broken to learn of the tragic passing of Leslie who is my dear friend...she was and always will be a shining light of love, caring, and understanding for so many of us. Leslie touched all that knew her with this light. May her circle of love live on through her husband and sons forever ...and may the seeds that she planted and cultivated in so many children and families grow forever... I will miss you Leslie until our spirits meet again love always, Karen

Larry, Adam, Ethan and the Weigel family. My heart breaks that Leslie is gone. She was the most wonderful person through and through. Always thoughtful, kind, generous and loving. A genuine friend. We worked in the same classroom together at Cashell ES for two years and she was the best teacher and friend to me. I will miss her. My condolences to the whole family
