Leslie Fowls Wyatt

Leslie Fowls Wyatt was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother “Nina” and follower of Jesus. Leslie lived to create a loving and caring home filled with fun and over-the-top family traditions. Her favorite was a yearly trip to the beach with her children and grandchildren, ensuring that her kids from across the country came together. Leslie was an avid cross stitch artist, gardener, sugar cookie baker and devoted prayer warrior. Some people love to be loved, she loved to give love.

She is preceded in death by her mother and father (Dorthy & Donald J Fowls) and survived by her husband (Wallace Lee Wyatt), three children (Joshua, Nicholas and Emily Browning), their spouses, who she loved just as her own (Becky, Kate and Matt), seven grandchildren (Isaiah, Luca, Norah, Brielle, Wynne, Charleigh and soon-to-be baby Lewyn), and her siblings (Earl, Don and Laura). Leslie fiercely loved her family and built a beautiful legacy. We “love you all the way around the world and back again and again.” We often heard her say “y’all behave”– we promise we will.

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”  Isaiah 41:10
