Please do not purchase flowers! Restland left out the last line of the obituary, which said, "In lieu of flowers, we ask that you honor Leslie by doing an act of kindness for a stranger" (or anyone else for that matter!). I'm calling them to correct this. Thank you, Charles
Charles, we are sadden to learn about the passing of Leslie. I was always comforting to know that there were two neighbors who kept an eye out on my Aunt and let us know if something was wrong. Auntie deeply appreciated as did the rest of her family. Sadly Auntie passed away Monday morning so we are also feeling the sense of loss that your family is going thru. But we are comforted in knowing that Heaven is a better place with the both of them there
What a remarkable, lovely, humble soul. Leslie was an expert in practical good works. She lives on in our hearts and minds and leaves a legacy of kindness and good humor. Mary Horn
Enchanted Cottage was purchased for the family of Leslie Sue Kemp.
Our hearts go out to Charles and David and the Shirley family, We know she touched many lives and are thankful for her remarkable gifts of love and advocacy. We also appreciated her support of our sister, Barbara Jones, and for the wonderful friendship shared by the Kemp and Jones families. Martha Ann Crawford and Chuck Connerly, Kalona, Iowa
Leslie was one of the kindest people I've ever known. Modest herself, she glowed whenever she talked about Charles and David (break-dancing, David?). She helped make the world a better place and her legacy will endure through the work she accomplished and the many people she impacted, including as a model of true service. May her memory be a blessing. Judy and Joel Hoffman
Lit a candle in memory of Leslie Sue Kemp
Charles and David, I can't put into words just what a great influence Leslie was to me for the past 40 years. Beginning at the WIN Office and then the Agape Clinic she was an inspiration in her compassion, her generosity and her love of fellow man. She never met a stranger and helped all that she could. You both were the light in her eyes, the spring in her step and the loves of her heart. Take comfort in the great memories you shared with her and may God grant you peace of mind and heart at this time of remembrance. To say she left this world a much better place is an understatement. Rest in peace dear Leslie and walk tall in the hereafter. Karen and Steve Mabry
To Charles and David you my deepest sympathy Leslie was one of the sweetest lady and compassionate people around and will be dearly missed my prayers are with you
Leslie was a light and blessing to everyone who knew her. My heart goes out to Charles and David and all who love her. Her life was well-lived, but all too short. I am especially grateful for her long friendship with my sister Barbara Jones and the connections between the families. Leslie will always be part of our lives. – Jean Crawford, Albuquerque, NM
