Lesley, I am heartbroken for you baby girl. Your mom was a sweet lady. I love you and am praying angels to surround and hold you through this time.🙏🏻
My dear Lesley,
I’m so sorry to hear that! I lost my mom a year and half ago. I remember we went out that time with our moms; so we have that fun memory. I love you and miss you!

Lesley,
Rest in the loving arms of Christ and always remember the happy times.
Love you!!
Leslie I am so sorry. Words cannot describe. I will always remember your mom fondly. All the memories, the antics we put her through as kids, her funny expressions, her wit and wisdom. She was always so kind to me. I am here for you, friend. Anytime you want to talk. We will keep her alive in our hearts. 🤍
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
I am so sad that my wonderful friend has left us! We laughed and cried throughout our lives together for 32 years! I loved her Southern charm. Ryan and Lesley my prayers are with you! You were her life!❤️🙏Blessings and peace.
I had the honor of working with Celeste at HomeTrust Bank. She will be missed.
Ryan and Leslie, I am so sorry. I have not seen your mother in a long time but she and I spent lots of crazy times together. Pulled each other thru bad times and had a lot of fun in the good times. Hope you all are well.
