LESLI J. LAMMERS was born 12/17/1955 in Salt Lake City, UT. Her family relocated to Houston, where she spent most of her life, graduating from Westchester High School.
In April 1981 she married the love of her life, Thomas Lammers. Over their 27 years of marriage, Tom and their two children Lindsey and Matthew were the center of her universe. Lesli was a devoted wife and mother and a dedicated employee of Tom's company. She was active in her community, spent many years with the Girl Scouts, and especially loved serving as her church's wedding coordinator. Lesli loved nature, had a variety of family pets, raised turtles, kept orchids, and planted a butterfly garden at her home. Always active, Lesli enjoyed cooking, entertaining, bowling, bunco, needlework, music, and reading. She also loved traveling with her family.
Lesli passed away Thursday, August 28th after a long and courageous battle with cancer. A celebration of her life will be held Saturday 9/6/08 at 11 a.m. at the Cypress United Methodist Church, 13403 Cypress North Houston. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting donations in her name be sent to the church's Sanctuary Memorial Garden fund.

Terry Diane Lindner (Crotinger) (1974)
Lesli, Jacque Dennis and I were all in the same Girl Scout troop. We spent all of our Westchester years going to camps. Lesli was a strong woman, even then. I remember when her mom died of cancer. Her mom used to bake us cookies and was so nice. I was afraid for Lesli, even then, but she never talked about her fears much. When she got sad, she'd just remove herself and sit by the water (Casa Mare) or the lake (Camp Arnold). I know she missed her mom.
Lesli and I bought the very same type 12 string guitars (Conn) and we'd sing around the campfires and play Norwegian Wood and John Denver songs in her room as loud as we could, pissing off her brother, Mike and her sister, Kyle.
After we graduated, Lesli and Jacque remained my very best friends and were both bridesmaids at my wedding. When we were still in high school, she said I could be her maid of honor, though that changed through the years. I did get to attend the wedding. Our daughters shared the same playpen once when I was visiting my folks in Houston. The girls were only about 6 or 7 months old. Oh, Lesli, I have missed our phone calls and visits. Who will I share my "Weenie Under the Rock" stories with? Thanks, Tom, for sharing her with me.
