She was born on March 25, 1949 to the late Milford Tucker and Louise Gilkerson Tucker in Maryland. A very organized lady, she worked at various locations as an office manager and human resource manager. Mrs. Lesley was intelligent and dependable, doing anything that was asked of her. With her multitude of skills, if she didn't already know how to do it, she would still be quick and determined to learn how. She was driven and continued to work even in her later years, recently retiring from Secorp Industries. Mrs. Lesley's positive attitude served her well as a Boy Scout leader for several years. She was a big influence on the dozens of accomplished Eagle Scouts she had a hand in guiding. In her free time, she was an excellent cook and entered the kitchen before she could read and even before she could reach the counter; she perched on a stool beside her sister who patiently read her the recipe to follow. Her dedication to succeed at an early age leaves her family with countless cherished memories of her delicious meals. She also enjoyed painting and sewing.
She is survived by her beloved husband, Dorman Pinter; daughter, Trisha Flatt and husband Todd; sons, Adam Pinter and fiancé Kaitlyn Nowell, Rusty Pinter, and Gary Pinter; grandchildren, Caitlin Pinter, Hannah Pinter, Clare Pinter, Sarah Grace Flatt, and Lynsey Flatt; sisters, Su Cauthen and Kristi Fitzgerald; and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews.
