For everyone who went to CompuCollege, do you remember Lesley who worked the front desk? Anyway, most knew that she had cancer. Sadly, Lesley passed on the 4th, and I thought I would bring this to everyones attention, because she was one of the nicest people ever, and a friend to everyone who went to that school. RIP Lesley.

For those of you that knew Lesley, her genuine smile was only surpassed by her courage, thoughtfulness, selflessness, and the respect and kindness she had for others. We will miss her more than words can convey but know that she is at peace, pain free and surrounded by loved ones who have gone before her. Cancer may have been strong enough to take her body, but no cancer could ever be strong enough to take her beautiful spirit. She will remain in our hearts forever.
