Leslie Rossin DiFrank, 72, of Delaware/Georgia, passed away Thursday, August 17, 2023, in her home in Woodstock, GA.

Leslie, affectionately known as "Nana," was born August, 11, 1951, in Chester, Pennsylvania, to Benjamin and Eleanor Rossin.

Leslie attended Mt. Lebanon High School in Pittsburgh, PA, and continued her education at The Pennsylvania State University and Gannon University, graduating with a Master's degree in counseling.  Leslie went on to have a successful career serving in various leadership roles for the Pennsylvania State prison system working with inmates to provide educational opportunities and second chances.

Nana loved walks at sunset, vacations to the beach, a good steak, a glass of wine, chilling on her back porch, a good book, and her grand-doggy Bosco.  But most of all, she treasured spending time with her favorite "peeps."  Nana was a devoted mother/grandmother who had a true servant's heart caring for her children/grandchildren.  There is nothing Nana would not do for her kids/grandkids.

She is survived by her daughter Stacy Harder (Mike); son Robert DiFrank (Lauren); two precious grandchildren, Elena Harder and James DiFrank; and sister Anne Wickstrom (Andy).  Leslie is preceded in death by her dearly beloved husband Joe "Papa" Closic.

We pray that our Heavenly Father be near to all of Leslie's family and friends during this difficult time.  Her spirit and joy live on by the love she gave us all.  If you knew Leslie, you loved her.  And that is how she will be remembered.  Rest easy Nana, we love you.

A private service will be held with family.  Burial will be at Georgia National Cemetery in Canton, GA.
