Obituary for Leslie Katherine Goodale (Gerlach)

Leslie Katherine Goodale of Southwest Minneapolis passed away unexpectedly November 18th, 2019. With her passing, she has left behind a legacy of kindness and laughter. A successful business woman, a dedicated mother, a loving wife, a loyal family member and a cherished friend, Leslie made an indelible, loving impression in our community. Leslie walked her deep faith in how she treated others. After selflessly leaving a promising career at Wyle Electronics, she dedicated herself to her family and became an active member in the Southwest community championing a variety of social causes. She was as active as a mom can be in her children’s lives imparting many of her remarkable qualities in them. Though she left us far too soon, her compassionate voice and unbridled laugh will echo in our hearts forever. She is survived by her husband, Robert; children, Grant and Grace Ann; parents, Mary F. Hardt and Michael J. Gerlach; siblings, Alex (Jody) Gerlach, Carter (Amy) Gerlach, and Annie (David) Habel ; many other relatives and friends. Funeral service Sunday, November 24, 2019 at 2 PM ~ Bethlehem Lutheran Church, 4100 Lyndale Ave. South. Private interment Lakewood Cemetery.
