Leslie Robin Mulvaney

Leslie graduated from Grand Blanc High School and attended Michigan State University where she met and married Michael Mulvaney, who was commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army. Leslie immersed herself in nurturing her family and many dear friendships through 22 years as a military spouse while stationed at Fort Benning Georgia, Fort Campbell Kentucky, Fort Knox Kentucky, Fort Lee Virginia, Fort Dix New Jersey, Pirmasens Germany, and West Point New York before retiring to Okemos Michigan. In addition to volunteering at numerous school, church, and community functions she worked as a religious education coordinator and retail sales associate.
