Personal note from Jim Davenport, Leslie's husband

This is Leslie's husband, Jim Davenport

It is with a very heavy heart that I have to let everyone know that Leslie passed away from a heart attack on Wednesday evening as a complication of the pneumonia that she had suffered with for the past 2 and 1/2 years. Leslie was a very giving person which sometimes I took for granted. She always tried to make everyday special. No matter what I say on here it just doesn't seem like enough. She is very sorely missed.
