My Leslie


Words cannot describe this horrendous loss of such a special person. While I love all of my friends and family unconditionally, Leslie had a special place in my heart. She had such a huge heart that she wanted to share to the world.
The media reports are making me angry. So many assumptions about Leslie, about the family, about Nick. We are united and we all have to grieve in our own ways. It's human nature. I wish the press would just let us grieve - let anyone who has lost someone grieve. What is it? Because it is a celebrity, the family doesn't mourn the same? I'm no celebrity and I can honestly say - we are all grieving this loss. So don't judge Leslie, or Michael Jackson, or Heath Ledger, or anyone by what is said in the media. You only hear partial "truth."
I love you Leslie - we all do. I couldn't even put my makeup on this morning without crying. I had memories of you doing my hair and makeup at Grampa's house for his play. You had such an impact on me and I wish I could have done more for you.

Rest in Peace Leslie.
