Jun 06, 1950---Feb 07, 2026

Leslie A. Green, a beloved mother, grandmother, and sister, was called home on February 7, 2026, at the age of 75. The daughter of Bob and Donis Curtis, Leslie was born and raised in Wamego, Kansas. She eventually moved to Lenexa, KS after marrying the love of her life, Lance Green.

 

Throughout her professional life, Leslie served as a receptionist, a role that perfectly suited her warm and welcoming personality. She took great pride in her work and truly cherished the many lasting relationships she built with her colleagues and those she greeted each day. Leslie belonged to Good Shepherd Catholic Church and was a passionate supporter of the El Buen Pastor Community in El Salvador. Her commitment to service was reflected in the way she lived—always offering a helping hand or a kind word to those in need. Leslie found beauty in the world around her. She was an avid bird watcher who found peace in nature and had a deep appreciation for the magic of the theater. Leslie was a devoted animal lover who adored her dogs, who were her constant and faithful companions.

Leslie was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Lance Green. Her memory will be carried on by her family: her son, Jason Green, and his wife, Katy; and her two granddaughters, Grace and Claire, who she was extremely proud of. She is also survived by her sister, Sherry Wilson, and the extended Wilson/McLemore family.

Visitation and Mass will be held on February 13, 2026, at Good Shepherd Catholic Church located at 12800 W. 75th St., Shawnee, KS 66216.

Visitation: 10:00 AM

Funeral Mass: 11:00 AM

Interment: Following mass Leslie will be returned home to her roots for a graveside service at the Wamego City Cemetery in Wamego, KS.

The last time I visited with Leslie in her home, we were joined by her adorable Scruffy, her fur-baby dog. And if you knew her, dogs were true family members. I know that she wanted to be with Lance again, but my heart is broken that she went so suddenly, before I got a chance to see her again. I will treasure the times we had in slumber parties, school musicals, Wamego high school pep bus, ball games & memories of the years since. She was always willing to say “I love you”, whenever we parted. Such a special lady!! I deeply regret missing her service, as I will be out of town.
