Mrs. Leslie has such a kind heart and she has shown it to me and my family. Without Mrs. Leslie's help I don't think I would have gotten the knee surgery that I needed. My family and I are thankful to have Mrs. Leslie in our lives. She is a caring and loving person. She is always looking out for other people and I will always be thankful to her for helping my mom when she has needed it.
I met Mrs. Leslie in high school. She was my mentor and friend and saw my potential even before I did. She has always been someone I can talk to and has pushed me to chase after my dream of becoming a nurse. She has impacted and helped so many people around me, and what she is doing for the community is so inspiring and dedicated. Thank you for believing in us and for being a voice for many. I'll never forget the moments you went out of your way to show me how special I am. I am very lucky to have you be a part of my life and wouldn't be the person I am without your help. Thank you for all that you do. L.Z.
