It is with heavy hearts, we announce the peaceful passing of LESLEY VERA PETRI (née Beall), of Lethbridge, at the Chinook Regional Hospital on Saturday, October 4, 2025 at the age of 78 years.

Lesley is survived by her beloved son, Tyler Jay “TJ”, brother Gene (Cindy) Beall, and her cherished extended family.

She was predeceased by her parents, Vera and John, and brothers, Keith and Kim.

Lesley was a devoted mother and a loving daughter, sister, aunt and friend to all who knew her. She had a special relationship to Nonna Lucia, whose presence brought warmth and joy to her life.

During high school, Lesley worked at the Northside Dairy Queen, where she developed her strong work ethic. She later pursued an Administrative Professional program at Lethbridge College, excelling in shorthand dictation, becoming one of the fastest typists in the City of Lethbridge.

Her career spanned several respected firms, including Schwartz Agencies, Tait Management, and MNP, where she retired at the age of 70. She also managed bookkeeping for TNT Towing for many years, earning admiration for her precision and dedication.

Lesley will be remembered for her unwavering kindness, sharp wit, and the love she gave so freely. Her memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.

A Celebration of Life for Lesley will be held at CORNERSTONE FUNERAL HOME, 2825 – 32 Street S, Lethbridge, AB on Friday, October 17, 2025 at 11:00 AM with Deacon Jim Manzara officiating.
