In 2001 Lesley married Murray, they resided in Calgary together until retirement, at which point they relocated to Canyon just outside of the the Creston Valley. 

Lesley took a lot of pleasure tending to her plants and garden. She was skilled in preserving and canning, and she was particularly known for her dill pickles and beets. Additionally, Lesley had a passion for photography and frequently documented all aspects of life that she cherished. Her subjects often also included landscapes, family weddings, airplanes, automobiles, animals, and especially her children and grandchildren. Lesley really had an eye for capturing special moments.
